• Most of America’s 1.2 million Public Housing units were built as temporary housing beginning in 1937.
• These units are old, outdated and in desperate need of major capital repairs.
• RAD will allow PHAs and their developer partners to convert Public Housing units to Section 8 PBV units.
• During this transformation a combination of LIHTCs and debt will provide the funding necessary to modernize these units.
• Only a small fraction of the nations 3,200 Housing Authorities have the expertise necessary to implement RAD.
WHY RAD?
Public Housing• Capital repair needs in excess of $25.6B across portfolio, or
$23,365/unit• Section 9 funding platform unreliable (pro-rations, cuts),
inhibits access to private debt and equity capital (declaration of trust)
• Losing 10,000-15,000 hard units/year
Section 8 Moderate Rehabilitation (Mod Rehab)• Cannot renew on terms needed to secure financing
Rent Supplement (Rent Supp) & Rental Assistance Payment (RAP)
• No option to renew when contracts expire3
CURRENT CHALLENGES
• Public Housing & Mod Rehab• Can compete to convert assistance to:
– Project-Based Rental Assistance (PBRA) or– Project-Based Vouchers (PBV)
• Cap of 60,000 units (applications must be received by9/30/2015)
• Convert at current funding only• Choice-Mobility, with limited exemptions• Extensive waiver authority to facilitate conversion
4
1ST COMPONENT
• Mod Rehab, Rent Supp & RAP• Upon contract termination/expiration, convert
Tenant Protection Vouchers (TPVs) to PBVs• No cap, but subject to availability of TPVs
• Choice-Mobility requirement per PBV program rules
• Limited waiver authority to facilitate conversion
• Prospective conversion authority through 9/30/2013
• Retroactive conversion authority back to 10/1/2006(convert by 9/30/2013)

2ND COMPONENT

• In nine months there are more Public Housing Authorities engaged in RAD than there were in the first two years of the HOPE VI program.
• There are more Public Housing units in the RAD program than there were in the first two years of the HOPE VI program.
• The RAD program has not required any additional funding from Congress.

What?
• Allows 60,000 public housing units to convert to long-term Section 8 rental assistance contracts
Why?
• Access private debt and equity to finance capital needs
• Program simplification/streamlining
• Better platform for long-term preservation
Conversion Options
• Project-Based Rental Assistance (PBRA)
• Project-Based Vouchers (PBV)

• What is RAD? HUD demonstration program that combines public housing operating and capital subsidy into a Section 8 HAP contract
• What kinds of developments are being done with RAD? Minor rehab; major rehab; new construction; mixed income; off-site replacement housing
• How do I determine if I have a project/portfolio that would be a good candidate for RAD conversion? Use the RAD Inventory Assessment Tool in the Resources section of www.hud.gov/rad
• How would RAD affect:• Residents: No change; 30% of income for rent• PHA Functions: Dependent on cash flow, fees, strong management; puts them
on the more secure Section 8 funding platform; Gives them the affordable housing tools of other nonprofit developers

• Ownership – Public or non-profit, except to facilitate tax credits
• Contract Rents
Operating Fund (with Operating Fund Allocation Adjustment)+ Capital Fund+ Tenant Rents= RAD Contract Rent
Notes:• HUD will honor the FY 2012 RAD contract rents for all applications
received before end of CY 2013 (applies to individual applications, portfolio awards, and multi-phase awards)
• PHA may adjust Contract Rents across multiple projects as long as aggregate subsidy does not exceed current funding (“rent bundling”)

Banks' net income each year.
• Most effective when paired with other programs and funding sources, like Low-Income Housing Tax Credits.
• More than 776,000 housing units have been built using AHP funds, including 475,000 units for very low-income residents.
• $4.6 billion in total AHP dollars since 1990. That’s 200 million per year.
• AHP loan funding often comes with an equal amount of grant funding.

RAD Sweet Spot—9% LIHTCs• Targeted prospects for substantial rehab &
replacement housing• No Section 18 review• Income mixing• Split project (AMP)
– 9% LIHTC used to help cover relo/demo/first phase– 4% LIHTC for balance of site
