Attainable Workforce Housing: Filling The Void Between Affordable, Market-Rate and Luxury

That headline says something that sounds so real good to-be-true . . .that was back at the start of this year at the end of January 2020.

Arizona Firm Digs in on ‘Attainable’ Rental Housing
Greenlight Communities aims to provide workforce housing without using government programs.
The first project, the $32 million, 226-unit Cabana on Washington, will welcome its first residents in April.
The 252-unit Cabana on 12th is also scheduled to open the same month. They will be the first new construction projects in the Cabana brand by Scottsdale, Ariz.-based Greenlight Communities.
According to Donna Kimura's article, "The firm aims to serve teachers, first responders, health-care workers, and others struggling with rising rents. These households earn too much for many affordable housing properties but not enough for the luxury communities being built in the booming Phoenix market, where “rent growth is expected to remain strong this year, bringing the average effective rent up to $1,280 per month after a 9.7% advance was registered last year,” according to a 2020 Marcus & Millichap forecast. . .
Rents at the Cabana properties will be $300 to $500 per unit below market rates,
In Greenlight’s model, all the communities are designed with individual buildings centered around large common courtyards that feature either pools, Zen gardens, outdoor fitness areas, and other amenities designed to encourage community interaction.
Just as Cabana on Washington and Cabana on 12th are wrapping up construction, the firm plans to begin construction on two projects in Scottsdale and Mesa, Ariz., in the next several months. . .

Greenlight Communities has received a $22.9 million construction loan for the development of Cabana on 99th, a 286-unit community project in Glendale, Ariz. Western Alliance Bank provided the mortgage, according to public records. JLL Capital Markets assisted the borrower and secured a joint venture equity partnership with Bridge Investment Group.
Located on 10 acres at 10000 W. Missouri Ave., the property has a projected completion date in 2021.
The amenity package will feature a pool, a common area serving as co-working space, and outdoor barbecue stations. The property is close to a wide variety of shopping and dining options along West Camelback Road and some 17 miles from downtown Phoenix.
In January, the developer acquired the site for $3.5 million from a private investor in an all-cash transaction, Maricopa County records show.
The new development will provide one- and two-bedroom apartments of attainable workforce housing.
Last month, Greenlight delivered two other Cabana-branded communities, providing 478 units of attainable housing in Phoenix.
The JLL brokerage team that secured the funds included Senior Director Brad Miner, Managing Director Bryan Clark and Analyst Daniel Pinkus.
