MidHudson President Joseph Carroll stated "It is gratifying to see the MidHudson Reserve Funding Product allow the quality team at HS Development to complete their financing. We feel like we really made a difference; getting shovels in the ground more quickly and in a more financially efficient manner than they otherwise would have."

HS Development President Steven Helm, said, "Once we contacted MidHudson, they moved quickly and efficiently. We went from introduction to execution in 5 weeks. They quickly got up to speed on the project and were able to issue an LOI and get to closing to meet a tight deadline. Their participation was accretive to the project."  Helm added, "Working with them was streamlined and simple. We plan to work with MidHudson on our next D4 project." 

In response to Helm's comment, Dan Ford, MidHudson's Head of Origination said, "We recognize that we are only one part of the transaction, so we try to make our process simple and inexpensive. We have great financial sponsorship and that allows us to quickly make commitments to get more deals closed."
