Freddie Mac

Strong demand has helped mitigate continued headwinds in the multifamily market, according to Freddie Mac's midyear outlook report.

Workforce housing is an important aspect of affordable housing supply, but in current market conditions, creative financing solutions are required to preserve more units.

Manufactured housing resident-owned communities are one of the few naturally occurring affordable housing sources in the country, according to Freddie Mac.

Multifamily demand is returning slowly leading to market stabilization; however, origination volumes will be below-average this year, reports Freddie Mac.

A year after the agency launched its Equitable Housing Finance Plan, efforts continue to expand lender and developer opportunities in underserved areas.

The agency is solving a long-time problem in the multifamily market by providing an opportunity for renters to build credit with on-time rent payments.

Multifamily is at an inflection point, but Freddie Mac is there to rise to the challenge, writes Kevin Palmer in this exclusive commentary.
