“Currently, there is limited investor and operator consensus on what constitutes impact investing in the affordable housing sector in the United States,” says Summer Haltli, Principal of ESG and Impact at FCP and board member of MIC.
“As a result, investors and property owners must either create their own guidelines or adjust to broad enterprise-level ESG frameworks that may not directly apply to multifamily properties.
"It is critical to develop a common structure for multifamily impact investing in order to unlock a private sector solution to the housing affordability crisis in the United States.”

“As interest in socially motivated debt and
equity capital continues to grow, it is essential for the multifamily industry
to come together and develop generally accepted principles and reporting
frameworks that facilitate the flow of impact capital and support affordable
and sustainable housing investments in the United States,” says Antonio
Marquez, Managing Partner of Comunidad
Partners who will serve as the Chairman of
the Board of the new organization.
