Integrating Efficiency: A step-by-step framework for integrating efficiency measures into the mortgage lending process (PART 3)

Building on the first session on understanding the positive impacts of energy and water efficiency lending and the second on what building efficiency can look like at three different levels of capital investment, this third webinar based on Community Preservation Corporation’s Underwriting Efficiency Lender Handbook offered a step-by-step guide for integrating efficiency measures into any institutional mortgage financing process, from origination to construction and performance monitoring. This session covered how to build cross departmental support and update underwriting and loan servicing policies. The presenters reviewed how different lenders work across their organization to support financing for energy efficient multifamily buildings. The webinar featured Elizabeth Kelly, Manager of Sustainability Programs at Community Preservation Corporation, Stacie Young, Director of the Preservation Compact at Community Investment Corporation, and Kim Stevenson, Director of Multifamily Housing at Connecticut Green Bank.
