Newmark Arranges $369 Million Fannie Mae Credit Facility for April Housing Florida Portfolio

NEW YORK, Oct. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Newmark Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: NMRK) ("Newmark" or "the Company"), a leading commercial real estate advisor and service provider to large institutional investors, global corporations and other owners and occupiers, announced the Company has arranged a $369 million Fannie Mae credit facility on behalf of April Housing, supporting the long-term preservation of an 11-property affordable housing portfolio located throughout Florida.

The financing consisted of a $221.4 million fixed-rate draw and a $147.6 million floating-rate draw, structured as an interest-only facility through Fannie Mae. Newmark Vice Chairman and Head of Affordable Housing Debt & Structured Finance Evan Williams arranged the financing on behalf of April Housing, with Senior Managing Director Ian McIntire, Director Seante Vang and Analyst Nicole Phillips also supporting the assignment.

"The successful execution of this financing reflects the strength of our relationship with April Housing and Fannie Mae, as well as our team's ability to navigate complex affordable housing transactions under demanding timelines," said Williams. "Through a highly coordinated effort, we delivered a customized structure that supported proceeds, addressed extensive regulatory requirements and helped position these communities for long-term affordability."

The transaction presented several complexities, including the review and analysis of 24 separate regulatory agreements across 11 properties, while requiring a swift turnaround from application to closing. Additionally, a buydown on the fixed-rate portion of the facility helped maximize proceeds and support the overall financing strategy. Affordable Housing Debt & Structured Finance and Capital Markets are part of Newmark's Investor Solutions services.

"By financing with a best-in-class credit facility from the Fannie Mae and Newmark teams, April Housing is able to ensure long-term affordability at these communities," said Naveen Agrawal, Senior Vice President of Capital Markets, April Housing. "We are grateful for our continued collaboration and support from both Fannie Mae and Newmark."
