Development Finance Programs Report

July 2013

Affordable Communities of Texas Program The ACT program has experienced a marked decline in the number of acquisitions over the past three months. Resources for new properties like NCST, HUD Homes and other foreclosure listing services have experienced a significant drop in available properties. One factor has been the number of bulk purchases that have occurred this year. Several real estate investment trusts have been purchasing hundreds, even thousands, of foreclosed properties from several of our key banking partners. While these bulk purchases have had an immediate impact on the number of available properties, our banking partners have noted that a regular flow, albeit weaker, will begin again once remaining portfolios have been sorted through and analyzed. Local Partners with ACT Veteran homes have continued to rehab and list properties for sale. To date the program has sold nearly 20 homes and has an additional 24 under contract. We are preparing the second property to be donated to a qualified household and have 23 additional homes awaiting rehab. Here is a snapshot of our current ACT portfolio:

Program Units Value ACT Land Bank 137 $2,023,328 ACT Land Trust 60 $650,000 Buyer's Agent 15 $1,122,678 Texas NSP 282 $5,294,486 Veteran's Initiative 67 $6,496,420 Total 561 $15,586,912

Lending Programs Staff is speaking with a number of potential new borrowers and working on submitting new requests for program related investments. Our current portfolio of revolving lines of credit continues to be active and staff is working on preparing an update to our annual lending report. Multifamily Bond Programs Staff has moved the Gateway Northwest apartment project through all of the necessary steps for state bond approval. Now other hurdles are preventing a closing of the project, which will be detailed in staff’s reporting agenda item. Staff is discussing several restructures and new projects with developers, but recent turns in the financial markets may cause several groups to rethink their strategies. Interest rates for taxable bonds, though still historically low, have made significant jumps up in the past two months. Higher taxable bond rates may also lead to more favorable terms for tax-exempt private activity bonds, like those issued by the Corporation.

Texas State Affordable Housing CorporationComparison of Budget to Actual

May 31, 2013

j The increase in Servicing Revenue over the budget is the direct result of 3 loan payoffs received during the nine month periodbeginning September 1, 2012 and ending May 31, 2013. All three payoffs (totaling $17,494) were associated with secondlien loans in the Corporation's down payment assistance loan portfolio. Only one loan payoff was budgeted for fiscal year 2013.

k The increase in Single Family income is related specifically to the TBA Program.

l The increase in Asset Oversight and Compliance income is related to the closing of the Dalcor multifamily deal whichresulted in the immediate receipt in September 2012 of $170,000 in asset oversight, issuer and compliance fees. Future fees related to Dalcor will be paid annually each January 1st.

m The variance in budgeted income results from the sale of donated properties through the Corporation's Affordable Communitiesof Texas (ACT) Programs.

n Foundation Fund Grants were approved by the Board in November 2012 and all awards were funded prior to May 31, 2013.

o The variance in interest and principal on notes payable is the result of the Corporation's decision to pay off the office building mortgage loan in installments of $200,000 per month beginning December 2012. The final payment on the mortgage was made in April 2013.

p The variance in building maintenance expenditures results because the office building parking lot was repaved and paintedduring December 2012 at a cost of approximately $13,000. Paving of the parking lot was not anticipated and consequently waswas not included in the fiscal year 2013 budget.

q The Corporation has received approximately 500 donated properties which is far more than anticipated at the time the budgetwas prepared. This has resulted in additional general liability and property and casualty insurance expense.

r The variance in Publications & Subscriptions is the result of a combination of several one time expenditures made during the months of December and May 2013.

s The variance in Single Family Bond Program Expenditures is the result of down payment assistance payments made to lenders. Beginning at the end of January 2013 the Corporation began advancing down payment assistance grant funds at the time of closing. Funds advanced under the program are paid back to the Corporation at the time loans are pooled and securitized.

President’s Report Mr. Leal gave the board a brief update on legislation concerning the Corporation’s homeownership programs. He stated that Senate Bill 286, authored by Senator Juan “Chuy” Hinojosa, had been approved by the full Senate and the House Urban Affairs Committee, and was currently waiting to be officially reported out to the House Calendars Committee. He also stated that House Bill 1029, authored by Representative Greg Bonnen, had been approved by the full House of Representatives and referred to the Senate Intergovernmental Relations Committee. Mr. Leal noted that both bills would reauthorize the homeownership programs serving Educators and Heroes. Mr. Evenwel asked about the continuation of the programs should they not be re-authorized by the Legislature. Mr. Long explained that the Corporation would continue to have bonding authority for single family and multifamily programs, and the Educators and Heroes programs were within the Corporation’s jurisdiction to administer. However, because they were specifically established and defined in statute by the Legislature, the Legislature’s input and coordination on the extension of the programs was preferred for the continuation of the programs. Mr. Long and the board welcomed Mr. Meade to the Board of Directors of the Corporation. Mr. Long then mentioned that the next training session of the Texas Statewide Homebuyer Education Program (TSHEP) would take place August 5 – 9, 2013 in Dallas. Registration for that training was now open and three courses were being offered. Mr. Long commented that the homeownership programs continued to experience strong volume. He thanked the board for their participation in meetings at the Capitol during the legislative session. He also recognized Mr. Leal and Ms. Taylor for the wonderful job they were doing and all their hard work. Mr. Long ended his report by introducing the professionals in attendance at the meeting today: Ms. Stein and Mr. Gehrig, both with Greenberg Traurig; Mr. Miller with First Southwest Company; and Chris Spelbring with Raymond James. Turning to the Marketing and Development report included in the board packet, Mr. Jones asked about Google Ads. Ms. Taylor stated that the Corporation utilized Google Ads to advertize both the homeownership programs and the Texas Financial Toolbox. She explained that Google Ads were the ads that appeared at the top of a search page when certain keywords were used by the person doing the search. What specific Google Ads appeared at the top of a search page was determined using a bidding process. Companies and/or organizations wanting their ad to be shown when a user used specific key words in their Google search would bid on how much they were willing to pay for their ad to appear. She informed the board that Google had a program for non-profits which granted a certain amount of free Google Ads per month. The Corporation had applied for the grant and was awarded up to $120,000 a year in free Google Ads for our programs with a limit of $10,000 in Google Ads per month. The grant also limited how much an organization could bid for each Ad. Because of this, it was likely the grant received from Google would only replace a portion of the Corporation’s Google Ads. Mr. Jones observed that this grant would be a huge help and Ms. Taylor agreed. She stated that when the grants used to fund the

Google Ads for the Toolbox had run out, the Corporation had stopped running those ads. Because of the grant from Google, staff was now able to start running the ads again. Turning to marketing, Mr. Jones asked about presentations that staff were making around the state. Ms. Taylor informed the board that Ms. Omohundro and Ms. Ellinor had given 20 presentations on the homeownership programs across the state to realtor groups, lender groups, community groups and cities. Tab 1 Presentation, Discussion and Possible Approval of Minutes of the Board

Meeting held on March 21, 2013. Mr. Evenwel made a motion to approve the minutes of the board meeting held on March 21, 2013. Mr. Romero seconded the motion. Mr. Jones asked for public comment and none was given. A vote was taken and it passed unanimously. Tab 2 Presentation, Discussion and Possible Approval of the Texas Foundations

Fund 2013 Guidelines and Application Requirements. Ms. Bayless recalled that in March the Board had approved the posting of the Texas Foundations Fund Guidelines and Application Requirements for public comment. Ms. Bayless reported that during the public comment period, comments had been received from three organizations – Central Texas Housing Consortium, Easter Seals of Central Texas and Coastal Bend Center for Independent Living. Staff had discussed the comments, both internally and with the Advisory Council, and had decided to accept some of the suggested changes. Ms. Bayless referred the board to the black line version of the Guidelines and summarized the changes that had been made. The first change addressed what types of properties were eligible for funding for critical repair. In the past, only properties where the owner lived in the home or where the organization receiving the grant owned the home were allowed. Based on public comment received, the Guidelines were changed to allow in rare circumstances for funds to be used to perform critical repairs on properties that were owned by a family member of the person living in the home. This would be allowed on a case by case basis, and only when the owner of the home could not afford the repairs and the occupant was protected from rent increases or lease terminations for an appropriate period of time. A second change had been made with regard to supportive services. Originally, the Guidelines stipulated that the supportive services provided had to be provided on site. Comments received had requested that this be changed to allow services to be provided to persons who lived in scattered site housing in addition to multifamily apartment complexes, and to allow services to be provided to those at risk of unnecessary institutionalization or premature placement in assisted living, in addition to those at risk of homelessness.

83rd Texas Legislative Session Legislation Passed Impacting TSAHC

Senate Bill 286 Senator Juan Hinojosa (Sponsor: Representative Greg Bonnen) Reauthorization of TSAHC Profession-Specific Homeownership Programs Effective Date: June 14, 2013 Senate Bill 286 continues both profession-specific homeownership programs by adding all eligible occupations under the Professional Educators Home Loan Program to the Homes for Texas Heroes Home Loan Program, creating a single program. The bill officially adopts the name “Homes for Texas Heroes Home Loan Program”, changing it from the statutorily listed “Fire Fighter, Law Enforcement or Security Officer, and Emergency Medical Services Personnel Home Loan Program”. The bill eliminates the division of the 10% bonding allocation, previously necessary for the separate programs. The bill also eliminates the end date of the programs in statute, effectively tying the reauthorization of the programs to TSAHC’s Sunset date. By combining the two programs the bill seeks to create a more efficient, effective and easily understandable program. Senate Bill 1553 Senator Eddie Lucio, Jr. (Sponsor: Representative Joe Farias) Reauthorization of TSAHC Profession-Specific Homeownership Programs & Eligibility Expansion Effective Date: June 14, 2013 Senate Bill 1553 is identical to SB 286, with the exception that it makes U.S. Military Veterans eligible for the Homes for Texas Heroes Home Loan Program. House Bill 3361 Representative Harold Dutton, Jr. (Sponsor: Senator Brian Birdwell) TDHCA Sunset Legislation Effective Date: September 1, 2013 House Bill 3361 continues the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs for 12 years and makes a number of other changes to their statute. In addition, the bill changes the application threshold requirements for applicants of the 4% Low Income Housing Tax Credit program administered by TDHCA in conjunction with the Multifamily Private Activity Bond program, including TSAHC’s program: § Applicants will have to provide notice of the intent to file an application to the

governing body of the municipality or the county in which the proposed development site is located. Any proposed development sites located in the extraterritorial jurisdiction of a municipality must provide notice to the county.

§ The county or municipality will be required to hold a public hearing on the application.

§ Applications may not be approved without a resolution from the county or municipality

certifying that: 1) notice has been provided, 2) there has been sufficient opportunity to obtain a response from the applicant regarding any questions or concerns about the proposed development, 3) a public hearing has been held and, 4) after consideration of the information and public comment the county or municipality does not object to the proposed application.

The bill provides TDHCA rulemaking authority to establish the time and manner of the submission of the abovementioned resolution to the department. Senate Bill 7 Senator Jane Nelson (Sponsor: Representative Diane Patrick) Delivery and Quality of Certain Health and Human Services Effective Date: September 1, 2013 Senate Bill 7 makes significant changes to the state’s medical and long-term services and support programs for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities covered by Medicaid. The bill also directs the Health and Human Services Commission to make all necessary changes to allow for the development of additional housing opportunities including community-based housing, provider and non-provider-owned residential settings, assistance with living more independently, and rental properties with on-site support services. The bill directs the Department of Aging and Disability Services to work with TSAHC, TDHCA, TDA and the Intellectual and Developmental Disability System Redesign Advisory Committee to coordinate with federal and local housing entities to develop opportunities for accessible and affordable housing for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
