Career Resources
Based on the highest ranked content on WSO, here's a bit of guidance for modeling LIHTC properties as a lender:
Understand the Basics: Before diving into modeling, ensure you have a solid understanding of how the LIHTC program works. This includes the application process, the role of tax credits, and the typical structure of deals.
Key Metrics: Familiarize yourself with the key metrics used in affordable housing finance, such as debt yield, debt service coverage ratio (DSCR), and loan-to-value (LTV). These will be crucial in your modeling.
Financial Modeling Resources: WSO offers a wealth of financial modeling resources that can be adapted for LIHTC properties. While these resources may not be LIHTC-specific, they provide a strong foundation in financial modeling principles that you can apply.
Templates: Look for financial modeling templates provided by WSO, which can serve as a starting point. You may need to adjust these templates to fit the specifics of LIHTC deals.
Learning from Professionals: If possible, seek out professionals who have experience with LIHTC financing. They can provide insights and potentially share examples of models they've used in the past.
Internship Preparation: As you're preparing for your internship, consider reaching out to your future employer to ask if they have any recommended resources or if they can provide you with a sample model to study.

You would model it the same way, but underwriting guidelines may be a little loser to support Affordable Housing, e.g. DSCR Ratio as low as 1.10x
