  • HUD’s file flags 6.9% of New York’s 223(f) book’s loans as tax-credit (LIHTC) properties, versus 16.4% for 223(f) nationally.
  • 22.0% of active loans in New York’s 223(f) book were endorsed in 2023 or later (15.4% for 223(f) nationally), so a larger share of the book carries post-2022 coupons.

How 223(f) fits a bridge-to-HUD plan in New York

223(f) is the usual permanent exit for a bridge-to-HUD plan on existing apartments: a bridge loan funds the acquisition or repositioning, and the 223(f) loan refinances it once the property meets HUD’s occupancy, operating history and coverage tests. In New York, 61 active 223(f) loans were endorsed in 2023 or later at a weighted rate of 5.41%, which is the most current read on what recent borrowers locked. Bravo Capital’s HUD 223(f) loan guide covers terms and requirements; for timing, each stage (engagement to firm application, firm application to firm commitment, commitment to closing) takes about two months, about six months in total.

Data source and method

Data source: HUD Insured Multifamily Mortgages (active), file FHA-BF90-RM-A, as of the October 2026 release (loans endorsed through September 29, 2026); HUD FHA Multifamily Firm Commitments and Endorsements Database (FY2001 to Q4 FY2026, data run October 8, 2026); HUD Insured Multifamily Properties, HUD Open Data (updated October 6, 2026) for metro area and Section 8 flags. Aggregates computed by Bravo Capital; no owner or contact information is used.

Balances are HUD’s reported amortized principal balance. Interest rates are note rates as reported by HUD (mortgage insurance premium not included), and the average shown is weighted by balance. Metro areas use HUD’s Core Based Statistical Area assignment for each property. “Holder” is the holder of record in HUD’s file, which is often the servicer or Ginnie Mae issuer rather than the original lender. Initial endorsement counts come from HUD’s multifamily production database, which covers apartment programs and does not include Section 232 healthcare loans.
