  • 7+ years of Section 42 LIHTC experience with strong knowledge of affordable housing programs (e.g., HUD, Section 8) and real estate development fundamentals.
  • Experience underwriting and structuring LIHTC transactions required.

  • Strong financial analysis skills, including the ability to evaluate sponsor financial statements (income statements, balance sheets, and cash flow statements).
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to present effectively to all levels of management and external stakeholders.
  • Exceptional analytical, reasoning, and problem-solving abilities.

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
