NEW YORK CITY—Locally-based Hunt Real Estate Capital reports it has formed a Manufactured Housing Community Strike Force to serve and promote the financing needs of manufactured housing community owners and developers across the nation.

The firm reports that the initial members of the MHC origination team include Chad Thomas Hagwood, Hunt Real Estate Capital MHC Production Head; Owen Breheny, Hunt Real Estate Capital Managing Director; Josh Messier, Hunt Real Estate Capital Managing Director and Brandon Pate, Hunt Real Estate Capital Vice President.

“By combining our expertise and years of experience in the MHC space, we will compound our ability to deliver outstanding loan terms and exceptional service to the community owners so they can remain focused on operating and expanding their investments,” Hagwood says. “The goal of our dedicated team of MHC originators and underwriters is very simple: deliver the best loan terms with VIP customer service.”

Hagwood notes that the firm will offer Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, SBL, and its own proprietary loan programs for manufactured housing acquisition and refinancing transactions.

“For owners seeking transitional financing, our balance sheet bridge program allows a quick and efficient execution. We are really delivering an array and expertise of financing options across the spectrum with the MHC Strike Force,” Hagwood says.

The MHC Strike Force team will make its debut at the Manufactured Housing Institute's 2019 Congress & Expo on May 6-8 in New Orleans.
