Red Stone Equity—Fund 84 includes investments from 12 different institutional investors, 11 of which are repeat investors.

The fund proceeds will be used, along with other project-level financing sources, to finance the construction and/or rehabilitation of more than 1,600 units of affordable rental housing at 23 properties in 11 states.

With the closing of Fund 84, Red Stone Equity has raised more than $340 million of LIHTC equity capital thus far in 2021, noted officials.

“We are pleased to announce the closing of our largest multi-investor LIHTC fund to date, which comes at a critical time as our nation confronts a growing affordable housing crisis,” said Ryan P. Sfreddo, president of Red Stone Equity. “Prior to the onset of COVID-19, more than one in four renter households in the U.S.—roughly 12 million households—were spending more than half of their income on rent, leaving far too little for other necessities like food, medical care, and transportation. COVID-19 has only exacerbated this crisis as it has had a disproportionate impact on low- and moderate-income households and on communities of color. We are proud to have executed on the Fund 84 closing for our investor and developer clients, but more importantly for the thousands of hardworking families, veterans, people with special needs, teachers, nurses, firefighters, police officers, and seniors it will help to house.”
