TIF Financing Explained: How Developers & Cities Partner to Build (Without Boring You)

Tax Incremental Financing (TIF) sounds complicated—but it's actually one of the most powerful tools in real estate development. In this episode, Mitch Ferraro sits down with Nick Jung, F Street's Director of Development and a practicing attorney, to demystify TIF and explain how it creates win-win-win outcomes for municipalities, communities, and investors. Nick breaks down: • TIF 101: What it is, how it works, and why it exists (hint: it started in California in the 1950s). • The Public-Private Partnership: How we partner with cities like West Allis, Brown Deer, and Oak Creek to transform blighted sites into thriving communities. • TIF vs. TID: The difference between Tax Incremental Financing and Tax Incremental Districts (and why it matters). • The Investor Angle: How TIF bridges the gap between construction costs and rents, making high-quality developments financially feasible—and why we only pursue municipalities that want to be true partners. • Real-World Examples: Specifics from Village 43 (90%+ rebate) and our West Allis project (100% rebate for ~25 years). If you've ever wondered how developers make deals work in communities that need housing but can't command downtown rents, this episode is for you.

F Street's New Strategy to Partner with Advisors & Family Offices | Ep 27

How does a real estate operator build bridges with RIAs and Family Offices? In this episode, Mitch Ferraro sits down with Michael "Shep" Sheppard, F Street’s new VP of Capital Markets and a former RIA founder, to discuss the intentional strategy behind our institutional growth. Shep brings a unique perspective from the other side of the table, having built and sold his own RIA. He explains: • Why RIAs & Family Offices Are Looking at F Street: Our role as a non-correlated, stable source of passive income with deep downside protection. • The "Hidden Gem" Thesis: How our 16-year track record, municipal partnerships (TIF), and multiple exit paths differentiate us in a crowded market. • Direct Access to Decision-Makers: The cultural advantage of a "get shit done" partnership where investors can speak directly to the principals underwriting the deals. • The Three Sleeves: How we fit into a portfolio with private debt (10% target), multifamily development (18-24% target IRRs), and industrial acquisitions. If you're an advisor evaluating alternative investment partners or an investor curious about our disciplined growth, this conversation reveals the "how we think" behind the "what we do."
