Case Study
Woodyard Station
The construction of Woodyard Station Apartments and Woodyard Station Senior apartments, in Clinton, Maryland, brings 46 new affordable rental homes for low-income families and 112 affordable rental homes for low-income seniors to the community. In November 2020, American Community Capital stepped in to provide two unsecured $500,000 Predevelopment Loans to fill gaps in financing and enable the developers to cover critical predevelopment expenses – including architectural design fees, environmental surveys and inspection, appraisals, market studies, and legal fees – prior to the construction loan closings.
