By working to create urgently needed affordable housing and other beneficial community facilities, I believe that we help make a tangible and positive difference in many people’s lives. I am fulfilled by collaborating with a team that shares my greater sense of purpose and mission of serving communities. I’m proud of the part I play in bringing our client’s developments into existence.
Peter Lubershane concentrates on the development of affordable housing and community development projects, primarily working with New England nonprofit and for-profit developers and national community development lenders. Some of these projects include the construction and renovation of private and public affordable housing developments, ranging from large-scale projects to single and multifamily family homes, including both rental and homeownership components. He advises clients on developing community health centers, workforce development training facilities, and other community and neighborhood development projects.
Peter is adept at navigating clients through the financing and development process, facing countless hurdles from real estate matters to regulatory and financial issues and beyond. He guides clients through complex deals involving multiple sources of funding, such as federal and state Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC), New Markets Tax Credits (NMTC), publicly subsidized financing, traditional and non-traditional commercial loans, bond financing, equity investments, and public and private grant sources.
Peter has a broad knowledge base in a niche area. In addition to providing structuring and financing counsel, he advises clients on real estate and conveyancing matters, including zoning, permitting, and acquisitions. He also counsels non-profit clients on governance and compliance matters.
Peter is a true partner to clients, seeking to build strong, trusting relationships through excellent service. Clients can focus on day-to-day operations knowing Peter is concentrating on the specific needs of their projects while providing them with the latest industry developments. He is a meticulous organizer and manager who works tirelessly to provide assistance to clients throughout the lifespan of their transactions, allowing clients peace of mind so that they can concentrate on the bigger picture of serving their residents and constituents and providing service to the community.
Throughout my career, I’ve been a proponent of the positive effects that affordable housing and community revitalization can bring to counteract the problems facing our both our local communities and throughout the country, including in my lifelong home in New England. It is a true joy to collaborate with familiar organizations in my local community for the greater good and get to know the further afield communities within which my clients work.
