Overview

About Taylor Healy

I represent for-profit and nonprofit developers and owners in transactional and regulatory compliance matters concerning multifamily affordable housing programs, including:

• Section 8 renewals and assignments
• Prepayments of existing FHA-insured mortgages
• Transfers of ownership of HUD-assisted properties
• Rent increases
• Transfers of physical assets (TPAs)

Prior to joining the firm, I spent nine years at the DC-based non-profit, Bread for the City, where I focused on housing policy reform and represented tenant associations in transactions, negotiations, and litigation related to acquisition and redevelopment, rent increases, the Tenant Opportunity to Purchase Act (TOPA), bankruptcy, and property-wide housing conditions issues. Prior to joining Bread for the City, I was a Polikoff-Gautreaux Fellow at BPI (Business and Professional People for the Public Interest) in Chicago where I focused on affordable housing policy and mixed-finance public housing redevelopment projects.
