<br />1. Acquisition Costs - Acquisition costs of approximately $11,000 per unit are within
<br />the typical market range of $5,000 to $15,000 per unit.
<br />2. Total Development Costs (TDC) -The TDC is approximately $14.65 million or
<br />$244,000 per unit. Multi -family projects in this market generally range between
<br />$225,000 and $275,000 per unit.
<br />Developer Fee - The proposed developer fee is approximately 9% of TDC, which is
<br />within the typical industry range of 8-10% for LIHTC projects. The Developer is also
<br />deferring approximately 81 % of their developer fee. The deferred portion of the fee is
<br />then paid to the Developer through future cash flow, which is projected to take
<br />approximately 13 years and is longer than the typical 8-10 years. The reasonable
<br />developer fee and higher deferred fee helps minimize the project's funding gap.
<br />4. Rents - The proposed rents are within 5% of the regulatory maximum allowed to be
<br />charged in projects using LIHTC proceeds.
<br />5. Operating Expenses - The operating expenses of approximately $3,900 per unit per
<br />year are within the typical range of $3,500 to $4,500 per unit per year.
<br />6. Management Fee - The proposed management fee of 5.8% of revenue is higher than
<br />the typical 3% to 5% of revenue; however, reducing the fee has a nominal impact
<br />because this relatively small project produces less revenue.
<br />7. Reserves - The annual deposit to replacement reserves is set at $450 per unit per year,
<br />.which is typical for projects that include financing from Minnesota Housing.
