GOVERNMENT CODE 484308 APPLIES: No
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
At a special meeting on December 13, 2024, the Community Development Commission
recommended the City Council to approve the recommended action by a vote of 5:0.
However, the recommended action was amended by staff following the Commission
meeting to add $20,000 and adjust the language of the award to comply with California
Government Code §§ 7260 or 66300.6 relocation assistance obligations regarding the
conversion of market rate rental units.
DISCUSSION
On October 17, 2023, the City Council authorized the Community Development Agency
("CDA") to release a Fiscal Year 2023-24 Request for Proposals ("RFP # 23-156") to
develop affordable ownership projects in the City of Santa Ana ("City") (Exhibit 1). The
RFP was prepared in compliance with the City's Affordable Housing Funds Policies and
Procedures. The RFP was published on the City's website and Planet Bids; a public
notice was published in the OC Register on October 25, 2023; and an e-mail was sent
out to Orange County's largest affordable housing membership associations, interested
developers, and nonprofit organizations from CDA's RFP Process Database.

A Review Panel, composed of City staff from the Community Development Agency and
Planning and Building Agency together with an affordable housing consultant, used the
Scoring and Selection Criteria from the RFP to review all of the proposals. Habitat for
Humanity of Orange County, Jamboree Housing, THRIVE Santa Ana, Mary Erikson,
and Orange County Community Housing Corporation ("OCCHC") each submitted a
proposal during the period that the RFP was open. Jamboree Housing and THRIVE
Santa Ana ended up withdrawing their proposals. The proposal from OCCHC that was
scored and reviewed did not meet the minimum threshold requirements and the
proposal from Mary Erikson was determined to be infeasible because it was cost
prohibitive. Following this review and scoring process, and substantial due diligence, the
Review Panel is recommending the following award for a project with Habitat for
Humanity to create nine (9) new affordable ownership opportunities:
Developer: Habitat for Humanity of Orange County
• 425 E. Wellington Avenue: Up to $920,000 in Inclusionary
Housing Funds for eligible homebuyers to purchase nine (9)
existing rental units that will be converted into affordable ownership
condominium units including: (1) an allocation of $720,000 to the
City's Down Payment Assistance Program, and (2) a conditional
award up to $200,000 for eligible relocation costs.
Background on Habitat for Humanity of Orange County
Habitat for Humanity of Orange County ("Habitat for Humanity") is a nonprofit
organization dedicated to providing affordable housing for qualifying families. Since
1988, the organization has completed and sold 239 homes in Orange County, including
32 affordable homes in the City of Santa Ana. Habitat for Humanity is currently building
an additional six (6) new homes in the City at 1921 W. Washington Ave for low-income
families at 80% of the AMI that was made possible with $2.2 million from the City's
Inclusionary Housing Fund. Habitat for Humanity also currently administers the City's
Residential Rehabilitation Grant Program with $500,000 per year in Community
Development Block Grant funds. The organization is the largest provider of affordable
ownership opportunities in Orange County and also advocates for fair housing policies,
addresses substandard housing conditions, and offers families training and resources to
achieve homeownership.
Project Description - 425 E. Wellington Avenue
The pre-commitment letter for 425 E. Wellington Avenue, Santa Ana, CA (APN 398-
028-12) between the City and Habitat for Humanity provides an enforceable funding
commitment of up to $920,000 in Inclusionary Housing Funds for eligible homebuyers to
purchase nine (9) existing rental units that will be converted into affordable ownership
condominium units including: (1) an allocation of$720,000 to the City's Down Payment
Assistance Program, and (2) a conditional award up to $200,000 for eligible relocation
costs (Exhibit 2). The letter is referred to as a pre-commitment because the City has

conditions and requirements that must be met before a full commitment can be issued
in the form of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). The purpose of the pre-
commitment letter is to award these program funds to the developer in compliance with
the City's adopted Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures last amended by
City Council on August 18, 2020. The letter states the maximum amount of program
funds reserved for the project and lists all of the additional conditions, documents, and
steps that must be taken before staff will return to City Council with the MOU.
Specifically, this project involves the conversion of an existing nine-unit apartment
building into condominiums, which will be made available for homeownership to Low
and Moderate-Income households earning less than 120% of the AMI. Habitat for
Humanity currently owns the apartment building and purchased it after the building was
rehabilitated in May 2024. The building includes one two-bedroom unit and eight one-
bedroom units, each with a single bathroom. Unit sizes range from 420 to 846 square
feet and are move-in ready. The building recently underwent over $1 million in
renovations, which included new flooring, electrical upgrades (new outlets and fixtures),
updated kitchen cabinets, and complete bathroom remodels. Doors, windows, shutters,
garage doors, stairways, and railings were restored or replaced as needed to meet code
compliance.
Current residents of the property with household incomes of less than 120% AMI and
that qualify to purchase a unit within the Property will be given the right of first refusal to
purchase a unit at an affordable purchase price (eight of the nine units are currently
occupied). KMA estimates the moderate income affordable sales prices at $310,400 for
the eight (8) one-bedroom units and $350,500 for the one (1) two-bedroom unit. The
allocation of$720,000 to the City's Down Payment Assistance Program will be available
for down payment assistance to individual households to purchase a unit, structured as
a silent mortgage based on homebuyer eligibility. Homebuyers must meet the eligibility
requirements for Habitat for Humanity's Affordable Homeownership Program with a
residency preference for local workers and residents of Santa Ana in accordance with
Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 8-3500. The conditional award of up to $200,000 for
eligible relocation costs will be available upon a determination by the City that the
Project is subject to relocation benefits under California Government Code §§7260 or
66300.6. The specific amounts utilized for relocation benefits will be based on actual
amounts determined immediately prior to the relocation of existing tenants.
The City and Habitat for Humanity will enter into a Memorandum of Understanding
("MOU") that sets forth the terms under which the City will provide the homebuyer Down
Payment Assistance and conditional relocation award. The MOU will specify that the
project is not undertaken by the City and is not in furtherance of a City program. Rather,
the MOU is a response to Habitat for Humanity's request for financial assistance to
enhance affordability for qualified homebuyers by providing homebuyer Down Payment
Assistance through an existing City program. The MOU will require that Habitat for
Humanity execute an affordable housing covenant to offer the nine (9) affordable units
Pre-Commitment of $920,000 in Affordable Housing Funds for Habitat for Humanity of
Orange County
July 1, 2025

to households with income that does not exceed the limits for Low and Moderate-
Income Households for an affordable sales price that complies with the limits for an
"affordable housing cost," as defined in California Health and Safety Code §50052.5.
The affordable housing covenant will run with the land for a period of forty-five (45)
years.
This pre-commitment letter shall not obligate the City or any department thereof to
approve any application or request for, or take any other action in connection with, any
planning approval, permit, or other action necessary for the construction, rehabilitation,
installation, or operation of the project. The pre-commitment letter will also be
conditional on Habitat for Humanity obtaining approval of all required entitlements and
discretionary actions to allow the construction, improvement, conversion, and/or
development of nine (9) affordable ownership units at 425 E. Wellington Avenue.
In compliance with the City's Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures, KMA
completed a preliminary financial gap analysis for this project (Exhibit 3). Following this
analysis and completion of the procurement process, KMA confirmed the preliminary
financial gap and need for the Review Panel's recommendation to award up to
$920,000 in Inclusionary Housing Funds. This second project's economics are
described in detail in KMA's analysis attached as Exhibit 3 to this report.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
There is no environmental impact associated with this action because the
recommended action consists of a pre-commitment of funds.
FISCAL IMPACT
For 425 E. Wellington Avenue, the MOU is estimated to be finalized for City Council
approval in FY 25-26. Upon future approval of the MOU, funds will be budgeted and
available as shown below:

Santa Ana, CA 92701
Dear Mr. Valentine,
Habitat for Humanity of Orange County, Inc. (referred to as the "Developer"), requested
financial assistance for eligible homebuyers to purchase nine (9) existing rental units
that will be converted into affordable ownership condominium units ("Project"). The
Project would be located at 425 East Wellington Avenue, Santa Ana, CA, 92701 (APN
398-028-12) ("Property").
The Project involves the conversion of an existing nine-unit apartment building into
condominiums, which will be made available for homeownership to Low and Moderate-
Income households earning less than 120% of the Area Median Income ("AMI") ("Low
and Moderate-Income Households"). The existing building on the Property was
rehabilitated in May 2024 and includes one two-bedroom unit and eight one-bedroom
units, each with a single bathroom. All units are equipped with essential appliances:
stoves, refrigerators and stacked washer/dryer units in the laundry space. Unit sizes
range from 420 to 846 square feet. The building recently underwent over $1 million in
renovations, which included new flooring, electrical upgrades (new outlets and fixtures),
updated kitchen cabinets, and complete bathroom remodels. Doors, windows, shutters,
garage doors, stairways, and railings were restored or replaced as needed to meet code
compliance.

EXHIBIT 2
The City of Santa Ana ("City") has reviewed the Developer's request for financial
assistance, and at the City Council meeting on July 1, 2025, the City Council authorized
and approved the issuance of this pre-commitment letter evidencing a commitment to
reserve $920,000.00 (the "City Assistance") in Inclusionary Housing Funds as follows:
(1) an allocation of$720,000 to the City's Down Payment Assistance Program (the
"Down Payment Assistance Program Allocation"), and (2) a conditional award up to
$200,000 for eligible relocation costs (the "Conditional Relocation Allocation"). The City
Assistance will be available to Low and Moderate-Income households. Current
residents of the Property with household incomes of less than 120% AMI and that
qualify to purchase a unit within the Property will be given the right of first refusal to
purchase a unit. The Down Payment Assistance Allocation shall be available for down
payment assistance to individual households, structured as a silent mortgage based on
homebuyer eligibility (the "Homebuyer Down Payment Assistance"). Homebuyers must
meet the eligibility requirements for the Developer's Affordable Homeownership
Program with a residency preference for local workers and residents of Santa Ana in
accordance with Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 8-3500. Conversion and
construction will comply with all City of Santa Ana, County, and State building codes.
The Conditional Relocation Allocation will be available upon a determination by the City
that the Project is subject to relocation benefits under California Government Code §§
7260 or 66300.6.
This letter shall evidence the City's pre-commitment of the City Assistance to the
Developer for the Project subject to the conditions described below.
City Assistance:
The amount of the proposed City Assistance has been determined based upon the
City's review of the Developer's request for the receipt of the City Assistance targeting
Low and Moderate Income Households.
The City Assistance shall be conditioned on and include the following terms:
• City and Developer shall enter into a Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU")
that sets forth terms under which the City shall provide the Homebuyer Down
Payment Assistance and Conditional Relocation Allocation.
• The Homebuyer Down Payment Assistance shall be available for Low and
Moderate Income Households with income that does not exceed 120% of the
Orange County AMI as set by the Department of Housing and Urban
Development ("HUD").
• The MOU may, but is not required to, include provisions that govern if and how
the City Assistance may be used in the event the total authorized Homebuyer
Down Payment Assistance loans are less than the amount of the award in this
pre-commitment ($720,000.00). The MOU may make these provisions subject to
approval from the City Manager of an amended MOU.
EXHIBIT 2
• The MOU shall specify that the Project is not undertaken by the City and is not in
furtherance of a City program. Rather, the MOU is a response to Developer's
request for financial assistance to enhance affordability for qualified homebuyers
by providing Homebuyer Down Payment Assistance through an existing City
program.
• The MOU shall require that Developer execute an affordable housing covenant
("Affordable Housing Covenant") to offer the nine (9) affordable units to
households with income that does not exceed the limits for Low and Moderate-
Income Households for an affordable sales price that complies with the limits for
an "affordable housing cost," as defined in California Health and Safety Code §
50052.5. In addition to the available Homebuyer Down Payment Assistance, the
existing residents shall have a right of first refusal, which shall provide those
households with the right to purchase an affordable unit. The Affordable Housing
Covenant shall run with the land for a period of forty-five (45) years.
• Developer shall assume any and all responsibility and be solely responsible for
determining whether the project must comply with the relocation requirements
under California Government Code § 7260 et seq. and implementing regulations
and any other applicable federal, state, or local laws governing relocation of
residential tenants, including but not limited to Division 2 of Article IX of Chapter
34 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (§ 34-331 et seq.) (collectively, "Relocation
Laws"). To the extent applicable, Developer shall comply with and be responsible
for all costs of compliance with relevant Relocation Laws.
• Developer shall assume any and all responsibility and be solely responsible for
compliance with all tenant and eviction protections, including but not limited to
protections under the California Tenant Protection Act (Civil Code § 1946.2), the
Ellis Act (Government Code § 7060 et seq.), Santa Ana's Rent Stabilization and
Just Cause Eviction Ordinance (Article XIX of Chapter 8 of the Santa Ana
Municipal Code) (collectively, "Eviction Protections"). To the extent applicable,
Developer shall comply with and be responsible for all costs of compliance with
all relevant Eviction Protections.
• Because the MOU will provide City Assistance as part of Homebuyer Down
Payment Assistance for qualified homebuyers, the repayment obligation is based
on the City's existing Down Payment Assistance Program. City shall not be
obligated to make any payments to qualified homebuyers under the MOU unless
and until Developer meets all conditions provided for in the MOU and qualified
Low and Moderate-Income Households comply with all requirements to receive
the Homebuyer Down Payment Assistance.
• The nine (9) affordable ownership units at the Project shall be restricted by an
Affordable Housing Covenant to an affordable home purchase price, which will
require that the nine (9) homes be sold to qualified Low and Moderate-Income
Households. Future sales of such single-family homes will be restricted to
qualified Low and Moderate-Income Households for a period of at least forty-five
(45) years.
EXHIBIT 2
• Developer will have a local preference for families who live or work in the City of
Santa Ana in the selection of qualified Low and Moderate-Income Households in
compliance with Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 8-3500. The local
preference will be applied after all existing residents have the opportunity to
exercise the right of first refusal.
• Developer will ensure that each "Program Participant" (used interchangeably
with "Homebuyer") means the selected eligible person or family who will be
purchasing a house. Each Program Participant will provide voluntary work as
sweat equity or any other administrative work as may be designated by the
Developer. Each Program Participant is to be selected by the Developer as more
fully set forth in its Affordable Homeownership Program. The City shall have the
right to review and approve the sweat equity requirements and related criteria
(including a residency preference for Santa Ana residents or workers) applied
through the Affordable Homeownership Program.
• Developer will comply with the City's Community Workforce Agreement and
union labor will be used for all necessary upgrades when volunteer labor is not
used.
• Developer will provide existing tenants with the right of first refusal to purchase a
unit, provided they meet the eligibility requirements for Habitat for Humanity's
Affordable Homeownership Program and the City of Santa Ana's Down Payment
Assistance Program; provided, however, Developer shall at all times comply with
the Relocation Laws. If an eligible and qualified household exercises the right of
first refusal, Developer shall sell the Affordable Unit to that household.
• Developer shall comply with all requirements of the California Building Code. If
the Project requires a building permit that is subject to Chapter 11 B of the
California Building Code, including but not limited to any requirements for "public
housing" under Section 11 B-233.3, then Developer shall comply with applicable
requirements of the California Building Code.
• At the close of escrow for the purchase of each affordable unit, the City will
require each household purchasing such unit to execute all documents and
instruments required by the City's Down Payment Assistance Program.
• The MOU shall set forth the terms and conditions for disbursement of the
Conditional Relocation Allocation. All disbursements of the Conditional
Relocation Allocation shall be subject to compliance with the Relocation Laws,
and disbursed only on a reimbursement basis after the City has been provided
reasonable documentation of compliance with the Relocation Laws.
General Provisions:
The City's obligation to provide the City Assistance to the Project is subject to each of
the following conditions:
EXHIBIT 2
• Developer must provide proof that it has secured all of its remaining financing for
the conversion of the Project in the form of enforceable funding commitments
and agrees that Developer shall be solely and exclusively responsible for any
and all Project costs in the event all or some of the City Assistance is not
approved or authorized.
• Developer and City shall enter into the MOU setting forth the terms and
conditions for the Homebuyer Down Payment Assistance loans for individual
homeowners and any other uses of the City Assistance, and the disbursements
of the Conditional Relocation Allocation, if any.
• Execution of an Affordable Housing Covenant and recording the same against
the Property.
• Developer shall assume any and all responsibility and be solely responsible for
determining whether laborers employed relative to the construction or installation
of the Project must be paid the prevailing per diem wage rate for their labor
classification, as determined by the state, pursuant to labor code sections 1720,
et seq. If applicable, Developer shall comply with the City's Community
Workforce Agreement.
• All provided funding and Project requirements shall conform to the City's most
recently adopted Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures and the
City's Down Payment Assistance Program, unless alternative requirements (e.g.,
reduction of 3% down payment requirement to 1%) are expressly provided in the
executed MOU or any other documents related to the conversion of the Project.
• Approval of all required entitlements and discretionary actions to allow the
construction, improvement, conversion, and/or development of nine (9)
affordable ownership units to be located at 425 East Wellington Avenue, Santa
Ana, CA, 92701 (APN 398-028-12).
• The City's obligation to provide the City Assistance is and shall remain subject to
all covenants, conditions, and restrictions set forth in this pre-commitment letter
and the MOU, and in particular, the City's analysis of the available funding
sources and development and operating costs of the Project and the overall
economic feasibility of the Project.
• Developer's compliance with any applicable Relocation Laws.
• For any disbursement of the Homebuyer Down Payment Assistance, each
Homebuyer shall comply with the City's Down Payment Assistance Program.
• Developer must comply with all other conditions specified in the MOU for
disbursement of funds, including execution and recordation of the Affordable
Housing Covenant.
EXHIBIT 2
• City shall have the right to review and approve any conditions of title, as reflected
on a preliminary title report, and a condition of title guarantee, at Developer's
expense, regarding the priority of the Affordable Housing Covenant, subject to
City's review and approval.
• Developer must indemnify, defend, and hold harmless, City against loss or
damage suffered by City as a result of any claim by any person or entity arising
out of or relating to this pre-commitment or the transactions contemplated by this
pre-commitment, excluding claims resulting from the City's gross negligence
and/or willful misconduct.
• Any other terms and conditions the City determines are reasonably necessary for
the MOU to protect the City's interest and comply with applicable law.
Developer, at its sole cost and expense, will be responsible for securing any and all
permits and discretionary approvals that may be required for the Project by the City or
any other federal, state, or local governmental entity having or claiming jurisdiction over
the Property or Project. Notably, this pre-commitment letter shall not obligate the City or
any department thereof to approve any application or request for or take any other
action in connection with any planning approval, permit, or other action necessary for
the construction, rehabilitation, installation or operation of the Project.
This pre-commitment letter for the Project will expire on July 1, 2027.

Linnie A.Gavino gap analysis for the project proposed to be developed at 425 East Wellington Avenue
EMERITUS (Site) by Habitat for Humanity of Orange County (Habitat). Habitat purchased the Site in
A.Jerry Keyser November 2024.
Timothy C.Kelly
The Site includes an existing 9-unit apartment building. Habitat proposes to convert the
existing rental units into for-sale condominium units which will be sold to Low or
Moderate Income households (Project). Habitat is requesting up to $920,000 in financial
assistance from the City of Santa Ana (City). The City's financial assistance package is
proposed to be structured as follows:
1. The City proposes to utilize up to $720,000 in Inclusionary Housing (Inclusionary)
Funds to provide down payment assistance to eligible homebuyers (Down Payment
Assistance Program Allocation).
2. The City may provide up to $200,000 in Inclusionary Funds to provide relocation
assistance to existing apartment tenants that do not purchase an affordable unit at the
property (Conditional Relocation Allocation).

The purpose of the KMA analysis is to evaluate Habitat's financial assistance request.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
As noted previously, the City's financial assistance package is proposed to be structured in two
components:
nnwn Payment Assistance Program Alincation
KMA completed a financial gap analysis to evaluate Habitat's request for$720,000 in Down
Payment Assistance Program funds. The results of the KMA financial gap analysis are compared
to Habitat's financial proposal in the following table:
KMA Habitat Difference
Total Development Costs $4,402,000 $4,374,200 $27,800
(Less) Total Available Revenue (3,654,200) (3,654,200) (-0-)
Estimated Financial Gap $747,800 $720,000 $27,800
As shown in the preceding table, KMA estimates the Project's financial gap at $747,800.
Comparatively, Habitat is requesting $720,000 in Down Payment Assistance Program funds
from the City. This represents a $27,800, or approximately 4% differential. Habitat will be
responsible for any unfunded financial gap above the $7200,000 in financial assistance
proposed to be provided by the City. As such, it can be concluded that the City's proposed
Down Payment Assistance Program funding is warranted by the Project's economics.
The City proposes to utilize $720,000 in Inclusionary Funds to provide Down Payment
Assistance Program funds to eligible homebuyers. The City Down Payment Assistance Program
Allocation is based on providing up to $80,000 per unit in down payment assistance to each
eligible Moderate or Low Income homebuyer.
Conditional Relocation Allocation
The City may utilize up to $200,000 in Inclusionary Funds to provide relocation assistance to
existing apartment tenants that do not purchase an affordable unit at the property (City
Relocation Assistance). The specific amounts utilized for the Conditional Relocation Allocation

The property assemblage costs are estimated at $3.23 million as follows:
Based on information provided by Habitat, Habitat purchased the Site for$3.11 million, or
$345,000 per unit. Habitat provided an appraisal prepared by AEI Consultants on July 26, 2024
that estimated the as-is market value of the property at $2.78 million, or$309,000 per unit.
As such, Habitat purchased the property for$325,000, or approximately 12% more than the
appraised value of the Property.
RELOCATION COSTS
The property is currently utilized as an apartment building that contains existing apartment
tenants. The funding source proposed to be provided by the City does not trigger the Federal
Uniform Relocation Act. To that end, Habitat estimates the relocation costs at $60,000, which is
based on three months of current rent payments.

However, Habitat will provide current tenants that earn 120% AMI or less and qualify to
purchase an affordable unit with a Right of First Refusal to purchase a unit at an affordable
sales price.
CLOSING COSTS
Habitat estimates the closing costs at $69,000 or approximately 2% of the purchase price.
Direct Cost
The direct costs assume that the Project will be subject to the City's Community Workforce
Agreement. The direct costs can be summarized as follows:
1. Habitat estimates the site improvement costs at $30,000, or $3 per square foot of land
area. The site improvement costs include asphalt repaving and trash enclosure
improvements.
2. The building renovation costs are estimated at $76,000, or approximately$8,500 per
unit. The scope of rehabilitation includes new water meters, garage doors, windows,
and additional repairs required by the insurance company.
3. The prevailing wage premium is estimated at 30% of construction costs, or$32,000.
4. The general conditions are estimated at 20% of construction costs, or$28,000.
5. Habitat will not charge for the costs to supervise the construction of the Project.
6. A direct cost contingency allowance equal to 15% of other direct costs is provided.
KMA estimates the total direct costs at $191,000, which equates to approximately$21,200 per
unit.
Indirect Costs
KMA utilized the following assumptions in estimating the indirect costs:
1. The architecture, engineering and consulting costs are estimated at 3% of the property
assemblage and direct costs, or$103,000.

19090.018.035
EXHIBIT 3
Judson Brown, City of Santa Ana February 10, 2025
Habitat Wellington — Preliminary Financial Gap Analysis Page 6
2. Habitat estimates the public permits and fees costs at $3,800 per unit, or$34,000. City
staff should verify the accuracy of this estimate.
3. The taxes, legal and accounting costs are estimated at 3% of direct costs, or $103,000.
4. Habitat estimates the insurance costs at $27,000 or $3,000 per unit.
5. The Developer Fee is set at $207,000 which is based on the following:
a. Management and Overhead costs are set at $4,000 per month for an 18-month
development period.
b. Habitat will charge the Project to provide homeownership services to potential
affordable homebuyers. Habitat set this fee at $15,000 per unit.
6. An indirect cost contingency allowance equal to 7% of other indirect costs is provided.
KMA estimates the total indirect costs at $507,000.
Financing Costs
1. The interest costs to be incurred during the development period are estimated at
$340,000. This cost estimate is based on the following:
a. Habitat states that a $3.0 million predevelopment/construction loan will be
obtained from a third party lender for the Project.
b. KMA assumes the p redevelop ment/construction loan will carry the following
terms:
i. A 7.56% interest rate;
ii. An 18-month development period; and
iii. A 100% average outstanding balance.
2. The financing fees for the p redevelop ment/construction loan are estimated at 1.0 point,
or $30,000.

3. The closing costs related to the sale of each affordable unit are estimated at $3,000 per
unit, or$27,000.
4. Habitat proposes to fund an $8,000 reserve for the Homeowners Association.
5. The warranty costs are estimated at $65,000, which equates to approximately$7,200
per unit.
KMA estimates the total financing costs at $470,000.
TOTAL DEVELOPMFNT COSTS
As shown in Table 1, KMA estimates the total development costs at $4.40 million. In
comparison, Habitat estimates the total development costs at $4.37 million. This represents an
approximately$28,000 differential, which equates to less than 1% of the total development
costs.
r-btimated Available Revenue
KMA estimates the revenue available to the Project as follows:
I UL&KAfE INCOML SALLS PRICt-S- INLLUSIONAKY HOUSINt FUNDS
The City will provide Inclusionary Funds to the Project. As such, KMA estimated the affordable
sales as follows:
1. The household income used in the calculations is based on the area median income
published by the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD)
and adjusted for the number of persons per household (Area Median Income (AMI)).
KMA assumes the household size is estimated at one plus the number of bedrooms
(four persons for a three-bedroom unit).
2. KMA assumes that the qualifying Moderate Income limits are set at 120% of AMI.
3. Since the Project consists of more than four units, the Project is required to have an
HOA. Habitat estimates the annual HOA dues at $400 per unit per month.
4. Habitat estimates the homeowner's insurance cost at 0.75% of the affordable sales
price.

19090.018.035
EXHIBIT 3
Judson Brown, City of Santa Ana February 10, 2025
Habitat Wellington — Preliminary Financial Gap Analysis Page 8
5. The annual utilities are based on the utility allowances published by the Santa Ana
Housing Authority (SAHA) as of October 1, 2024. KMA assumes the homeowners will pay
for: electric cooking, electric heating, electric water heating, basic electricity, air
conditioning, water, sewer and trash.
6. Habitat estimates the property tax cost based on 1.25% of the estimated affordable
sales price.
7. The mortgage interest rate is set at 7.0%. The mortgage is assumed to be fully
amortizing over 30 years and provided by a conventional lender.
8. The homebuyer down payment is set at 5% of the affordable sales price.
Based on the assumptions outlined above, KMA estimates the Moderate Income affordable
sales prices at $310,400 for the eight (8) one-bedroom units and $350,500 for the one (1) two-
bedroom unit.
AFFORDABLE SALES PRICE REVENUE
KMA estimates that nine Moderate Income units will generate $2.83 million in affordable sales
revenue.
However, it is important to note that the affordable sales prices will ultimately be determined
immediately prior to the sale of each unit. This analysis may need to be revised if the affordable
sales prices differ from the sales prices utilized in this analysis.
ADDITIONAL REVENUF
���rinl(�rna�ca
The property is currently operating as an apartment building and is collecting rents from
existing tenants. Habitat estimates that the Project will generate $229,700 in rental income
during the condominium conversion process. Habitat will utilize this rental income as a funding
source for the Project.

Habitat proposes to utilize fundraising contributions to off-set a portion of the development
costs. As such, Habitat estimates the financial assistance that they will provide to the Project at
$590,800, or$65,600 per unit.
ESTIMATED AVAILABLE REVENUE
The Project's estimated total available revenue is equal to the sum of the Affordable Sales Price
revenue and the Project's additional revenue. KMA estimates the total available revenue as
follows:
Affordable Sales Price Revenue $2,833,700
Rental Income 229,700
Habitat Financial Assistance 590,800
Estimated Available Revenue $3,654,200
Financial Gap Calculation
The financial gap is estimated by deducting the Project's available revenue from the Project's
total development costs. Based on the preceding analysis, KMA estimates the Project's financial
gap as follows:
KMA
Total Development Costs $4,402,000
(Less) Total Available Revenue (3,654,200)
Estimated Financial Gap $747,800
Per Unit $83,100
As shown in the preceding table, KMA estimates the Project's financial gap at $747,800.
Comparatively, Habitat is requesting $720,000 in Down Payment Assistance Program funding
from the City. Since this amount is less than the financial gap identified by KMA, it can be

19090.018.035
EXHIBIT 3
Judson Brown, City of Santa Ana February 10, 2025
Habitat Wellington — Preliminary Financial Gap Analysis Page 10
concluded that the proposed Down Payment Assistance Program Allocation is warranted by the
project economics.
However, KMA estimates that the Project exhibits an unfunded financial gap of$27,800.
Habitat will need to secure funding sources for any unfunded financial gap in order for the
Project to be financially feasible. The City should confirm that Habitat has secured all necessary
funding sources before formally disbursing any City funds.
SILENT SECOND MORTGAGE REVENUE CALCULATION (TABLE 4)
As a basic premise, it must be assumed that the total of the liens accepted by a homebuyer
cannot exceed the unrestricted market value of the home. Furthermore, based on previous City
homeownership projects, the City will record a second trust deed equal to the difference
between the Affordable Sales Price and the estimated market value of the home.
KMA assumes that the City's second trust deed will be structured as deferred payment loans
which are commonly known as silent second mortgages. These loans typically become due and
payable when the home is resold to a non-affordable home buyer. KMA assumes that the City's
silent second trust deed will fall second in the lien hierarchy behind the conventional first trust
deed mortgage.
The calculations used to estimate the supportable silent mortgages are presented in the
following sections of this analysis.
Md(Kel KaLe :�oaies rriLes
KMA researched sales comparables for similar units in the market area for the purpose of
estimating the current silent second mortgage amount. The appraisal provided by Habitat
included additional sales comparable data. Based on this information, KMA estimates the
market rate sales price for the units as follows:
1. One-Bedroom Units: $345,600
2. Two-Bedroom Unit: $389,700

EXHIBIT 3

Available Silent Second Mortgage Revenue
Based on the estimated market rate sales prices, the available silent second mortgage revenue
is estimated at as follows:
Moderate Income Units
One-Bedroom Two-Bedroom
Units Unit
Market Rate Sales Price $345,600 $389,700
(Less) Affordable Sales Price (310,400) (350,500)
Silent Second Mortgage Amounts (Per Unit) $35,200 $39,200
Number of Units 8 1
Available Silent Second Mortgage Capacity $281,600 $39,200
Total Amount of City Down Payment
Assistance Secured as Silent Mortgages $320,800
Thus, it is important to note that based on the estimated market rate prices, the City will not be
able to secure the full $80,000 in City Down Payment Assistance Program funding per unit. The
City will only be able to secure the amount of mortgage capacity between the appraised market
value and the first mortgage amount.
Based on current estimates, the City will be able to secure $320,800 of the $720,000 in City
Down Payment Assistance Program funding as silent mortgages.
Proposed City Down Payment Assistance $720,000
(Less) Amount Secured by Silent Mortgages (320,800)
Estimated Amount Unable to be Secured Against $399,200

However, this calculation is provided for illustrative purposes only at this time. The calculation
will need to be conducted at the time of sale of each unit and must be based on the actual
appraised value and affordable sales prices at the time of sale.
Affordable Sales Price Differential
Furthermore, it is important to note that there typically needs to be a sales price differential
between the market rate sales price and the affordable sales price in order to entice
homebuyers to accept an affordability covenant.
The following illustrates the price differential based on the currently estimated market rate
sales affordable sales prices:
Moderate Income Units
One-Bedroom Two-Bedroom
Units Unit
Market Rate Sales Price $345,600 $389,700
(Less) Affordable Sales Price (310,400) (350,500)
Price Differential $35,200 $39,200
of Market Rate Sales Price 10% 10%
Ultimately, the silent second mortgage and sales price differential calculations will occur once
sales of the units commence. At that point, the appraised market values of the homes and the
defined Affordable Sales Prices will be utilized to determine the silent second mortgage
amounts and any possible affordable sales price reductions that are necessary to entice
affordable homebuyers.
CONCLUSIONS / RECOMMENDATIONS
The following summarizes the conclusions of the KMA analysis:
1. City Financial Assistance:
a. Down Payment Assistance Program Allocation:
2412002v3.SA.TRB
19090.018.035
EXHIBIT 3
Judson Brown, City of Santa Ana February 10, 2025
Habitat Wellington — Preliminary Financial Gap Analysis Page 13
i. Based on currently available information, KMA estimates the Project's
financial gap at $747,800. In comparison, Habitat is requesting $720,000
in Down Payment Assistance Program funding from the City. As such,
Habitat's request is supported by the Project economics.
ii. KMA estimates that the Project exhibits a $27,800 unfunded financial
gap. Habitat will need to secure funding sources for any unfunded
financial gap in order for the Project to be financially feasible. The City
should confirm that Habitat has secured all necessary funding sources
before disbursing any funds.
b. Conditional Relocation Allocation: The City may utilize up to $200,000 in
Inclusionary Funds to provide relocation assistance to existing apartment tenants
that do not purchase an affordable unit at the property. The specific amounts
utilized for the Conditional Relocation Allocation will based on actual amounts
determined immediately prior to the relocation of existing tenants.
2. Habitat purchased the property for $325,000, or approximately 12%, more than the
appraised value. However, the City established the maximum amount of City Down
Payment Assistance Program Allocation based on the funding limits established by the
City's Down Payment Assistance Program (DPAP). Habitat is required to fund any
remaining financial gap amount after the affordable sales price revenue and City's
financial assistance amount is taken into consideration. Therefore, Habitat is responsible
for the purchase price that exceeds the appraised value of the property.
3. Given the preliminary nature of the proposal, if the scope of development or financing
assumptions change, the KMA analysis may need to be updated accordingly.
4. The affordable sales prices cannot be finalized until the Project commences sales
activities. It is likely that the actual affordable sales prices will differ from the amounts
estimated in this analysis.
5. The silent second mortgage and sales price differential calculations will occur once sales
of the units commence. At that point, the appraised market values of the homes and the
defined affordable sales prices will be utilized to determine the silent second mortgage
amounts and any possible affordable sales price reductions that are necessary to entice
affordable homebuyers.

a. Based on current estimates of market rate sales prices, the City will not be able
to secure the full $80,000 per unit in City Down Payment Assistance with silent
second mortgages. KMA estimates that approximately $399,200 of the City's
$720,000 in City Down Payment Assistance Program funds will not be able to be
secured by the affordable units.
b. The affordable sales prices may need to be reduced further in order to entice
homebuyers to accept an affordable covenant.
6. KMA typically recommends that the City retain 10% of the City's financial assistance
amount (or$92,000) until after the completion of the construction. However, in this
instance, the City will provide the Down Payment Assistance Program funds directly to
eligible homebuyers and any relocation assistance will be based on actual relocation
costs at the time of the relocation of tenants. As such, there is no need to impose a 10%
retention requirement on the Project.
