Reminder! Forgivable Loan Notes and Manufactured Home Note & Security Agreement
The Impact Fund 10-year and 20-year Forgivable Loan Notes have been updated to remove previous errors in section references. All administrators providing Impact Fund forgivable loans for real property must use the revised Notes, found under the Deferred Loans section on the Impact Fund Partners webpage.
The Impact Fund Manufactured Home Note and Security Agreement is now available under the Deferred Loans section on the Impact Fund Partners webpage for projects providing deferred forgivable loans for manufactured homes taxed as personal property.
The Impact Fund (Balloon) Loan Note does not have any changes. Administrators providing 30-year repayable loans can continue to use the Impact Fund (Balloon) Loan Note (rev. 05/22/2024).
