As traditional capital markets tighten, securing financing for housing developments has become increasingly complex. Rising interest rates, risk-averse lenders, and shifting investor priorities have created a challenging landscape for developers seeking to fund new projects. However, innovative financing structures—ranging from public-private partnerships (P3s) and tax-exempt bonds to impact investing, opportunity zones, and alternative debt solutions—are emerging as powerful tools to move projects forward.
This panel brings together industry leaders, institutional investors, and development experts to explore how creative financing structures can bridge funding gaps and ensure the success of housing developments. Attendees will gain insights into:
- The current state of capital markets and its impact on student & workforce housing in-vestment
- Alternative financing mechanisms, including P3s, tax credits, and revenue-based funding
- Case studies of successful student housing developments that leveraged innovative funding approaches
- Strategies for aligning financing models with institutional partners, municipalities, and private investors
