This webinar examines the process of developing a housing preservation plan aimed at ensuring the continuity of the affordability of subsidized rental housing units as they approach the expiration of their mandated affordability periods. The session will address how local housing stakeholders can coordinate across public, nonprofit, and private sectors to prevent the loss of existing affordable rental stock. Participants will explore the key components of a preservation strategy, including methods for identifying at-risk properties, understanding the regulatory and financial frameworks that govern affordability restrictions, and evaluating the tools available to extend or restore affordability, such as refinancing, recapitalization, acquisition by mission-driven owners, and the layering of additional subsidies.
