Affordable Housing and Community Development:
Finding resources and creating opportunities in 2010
November 5 - 6, 2009
The W Hotel
Washington, DC
Conference Overview
The year 2010 brings many new opportunities and challenges to our industry. The
liquidity crunch created by the global economic crisis continues to affect our industry—making
it even more difficult to develop affordable housing around the country. At the
same time, changes in policy at HUD and the implementation of the incentives in
the stimulus package have dramatically changed how affordable housing and community
development deals get done. Led by industry experts, this conference will provide
candid insights, observations, and real-life examples for how to address these issues
in a changing economy. It will convene some of the most experienced developers,
financiers, technical experts, policy makers, and advocates who are redefining how
affordable housing and community development are being developed in this country.
Topics covered throughout this conference will encompass some of the most important
obstacles and opportunities associated with developing affordable housing in 2010
and beyond, including
- leveraging federal programs available for affordable housing,
- capitalizing on the Credit Exchange and TCAP,
- opportunities and challenges for housing preservation,
- assessing the state of the debt and equity markets,
- updates on industry initiatives to expand the tax credit investor market,
- increasing profits with green technologies, and
- creative methods to raise equity capital in uncertain times.
