GNYDC Loan Structure: |

LIDC’s New Market Loan Fund is designed to serve as a “takeout” permanent loan. When the project involves new construction or large-scale renovation, the other lender provides a temporary bridge loan. For straight real estate purchases, GNYDC can co-fund with the other lender and there is no need for interim financing. |
