This amendment Included the addition of a Homebuyer Assistance Program Component to the Arrow Vista Housing Development project (Please see attached Section 3.11). As designed, the homebuyers assistance program calls for the Agency to reduce its escrow demand statement by $5,000, and instead receive a Deed of Trust (second position) and Promissory Note in that amount. The purpose and intent of this program is to both facilitate the sale of these homes and to promote homeownership opportunities. Pridemark Homes has indicated that the assistance program as designed, is extremely ineffectual at addressing the significant financial needs of potential homebuyers. The combination of additional liens against the property, with no additional resources actually being provided into escrow, makes this program critically unattractive and in many cases virtually unuseable. There are several properties currently in escrow which could be closed immediately, if the existing homebuyer assistance program could be modified. To facilitate sales of Phase IIA properties, PrideMark Homes is proposing that the Arrow Vista Homebuyer Assistance Program be redesigned. It is proposed that the Assistance now be structured as a direct grant to the homebuyer, and not be secured in any fashion against the property. The funds would be credited towards the homebuyer's closing costs or down payment at the close of escrow, and would not actually be handled (directly or indirectly by the borrower). This action would subsequently result in the Agency receiving $5,000 less per property ($107,000 vs $102,000). It is the opinion of both Pridemark Homes and the staff that this action, however, would serve to significantly enhance the marketability and saleability of the existing housing stock. It is important to underscore that the sole purpose and intent of this proposed action is to stimulate sale of the existing Phase IIA Arrow Vista inventory. The subsequent sales enable the Agency to both repay a proposed Bank of San Bernardino note and to utilize these valuable resources on other high quality housing development opportunities. Staff recommends adoption of the form motions. _% ,�Wa',-.a 0/2 2. ''F" 011 L.a- Z MNNETHee.
