Business Wire
LEO Impact Capital, JBG SMITH’s workforce housing investment
management platform, announced today the placement of a $13 million
bond on Franklin Apartments and Earle Manor from the Montgomery
County Revenue Authority. The tax-exempt bond replaces the taxable
mezzanine loans provided by the Washington Housing Initiative
Impact Pool in a single issuance with the same terms. LEO Impact
Capital manages the Washington Housing Initiative Impact Pool.
Located in Takoma Park, Md., Franklin Apartments is a mid-rise
apartment community with 185 senior-living units reserved for
residents 62 or older. The property has been owned by the
Montgomery Housing Partnership (MHP) since 2022 and in 2024, the
Impact Pool provided a $6 million mezzanine loan to MHP for its
refinancing of the property.
Earle Manor, located in Wheaton, Md., consists of 140 units
across two low-rise apartment buildings. Owned by a joint venture
between the Washington Housing Conservancy (WHC) and MHP, the
property was acquired in 2022 through the Montgomery County Right
of First Refusal (ROFR) process and was supported by a $5.6 million
mezzanine loan from the Impact Pool, a soft loan from Montgomery
County and a Payment in Lieu of Taxes (PILOT) to reduce property
taxes.
“This bond will not only secure long-term affordability and
prevent displacement for residents in Montgomery County, Maryland
but also allows LEO Impact Capital to organize competitively priced
capital at scale to expand housing affordability and economic
mobility in great communities,” said AJ Jackson, President of LEO
Impact Capital. “This is an excellent example of our ability to
leverage our platform to broaden access to and supply of workforce
housing. We thank the Montgomery County Revenue Authority for its
partnership.”
