SINGLE-FAMILY MORTGAGE REVENUE BOND
The County of San Bernardino Department of Economic and Community Development is pursuing
an innovative program for first-time home buyers. The County has requested the City of San
Bernardino to participate in the application to the State for a $80,000,000 Single-Family Mortgage
Revenue Bond. The bond is to be issued in the Spring of 1995 and is being underwritten by the
investment banking firms of Kinsell, ONeal, Newcomb and De Dios, Inc., and George K. Baum&
Company.
The County and its participating cities can request from the State of California, up to $20,000,000
each and hopes to receive a total allocation of$80,000,000. The following is the list of
incorporated cities which will be adopting a Resolution, Cooperative Agreement and/or assignment
of allocation as scheduled as agenda items between January 23, 1995 and February 14, 1995:
Barstow Montclair Chino Apple Valley
Upland San Bernardino 29 Palms Fontana
Yucaipa Colton Chino Hills Rialto
Grand Terrace Victorville Highland Big Bear Lake
Hesperia Yucca Valley Needles Ontario
Redlands Loma Linda Adelanto Rancho Cucamonga
This allocation will be utilized throughout the entire County and within all the participating cities.
All costs of issuance will be provided through a premium pricing on the bonds and, if necessary, a
small fee from participating lenders. The County will issue the bonds and act as the Administrator
along with the firm of Urban Futures. The payment for the administration of the program will come
from the home buyer and will be for reimbursement of staff time and not for revenue generation.
There will be no cost to the City of San Bernardino for our participation.
Under Federal guidelines a portion of the bond proceeds will be reserved to the City of San
Bernardino for low income target areas for a certain period of time. The amount of the reservation
depends in large measure upon the amount of the final allocation and upon a formula for the low
income target areas.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The proceeds of the bonds will be provided for a thirty (30)year fixed rate mortgages to low-
moderate income families. The mortgages will be below market rates and the bond structure also
allows for down payment assistance in the form of a contribution of four percent (4%). This can be
used to fund either the down payment, temporary buy down or allowable closing costs. As of the
week of January 9, 1995, the following examples applies:
Premium Loans Par Loans Conventional
Loan Rate 8.65% 8.00% 9.25%
Down Payment Assistance 4.00% N/A N/A
Thus, if a homeowner wanted a contribution for a down payment assistance they would receive a
loan rate of 8.65%. If, however, they did not want the contribution they would have an 8.00% loan
rate.
The bond structure also offers an option to reduce the loan rate on bond proceeds which are not yet
funded into loans, if the prevailing market interest rates decline. This is an important option which
enhances the usefulness of the bond proceeds during the entire origination period.
Lenders will reserve funds for loans on a first-come first-served basis. The following lenders have
signed offers to participate:
North American Mortgage Guild Mortgage Crossland Mortgage
Kaufman&Broad Mortgage Countywide Funding Neighborhood Housing Services
Directors Mortgage Norwest Mortgage CTX Mortgage
Hammond Company Weyerhaeuser Mortgage Funders Mortgage
Southwest Colonial Mortgage
The City benefits in its participation with the County in three (3) distinct ways:
1. Lower percentage costs of issuance are achieved with a larger bond issue than if the

City of San Bernardino attempted an exclusive $20,000,000 bond measure.
2. Potentially greater availability of loan proceeds with the City(i.e., it can draw the
entire $80,000,000..
3. No City staff costs or time are required for the administration of this program.
Based upon the significant heretofore mentioned benefits to the community, Agency staff
recommends adoption of the form motion.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Beginning'in 1980 the Counry issued its first Single-
Family Mortgage Revenue Bond issue which provided below market interest rate
financing for over 400 bouseboldi Subsequent to the 1980 financing, the County issued
bonds in 1982, 1983, 1984, 1985, 1988, 1989 and 1990. After 1990 conventional mortgage
interest rates declined to a level whereby Single-Family Mortgage Revenue Bonds were
no longer as attractive as in previous years. However, with the recent rise in interest
rates, lenders and developers have requested that the County sponsor a Single-Family
Mortgage Revenue Bond Issue. Preliminary indications of interest from lenders and
developers are in excess of 100 million dollars.
