Maison Mitoyenne à West Lafayette

Rare LIHTC-to-market-rate value-add opportunity in West Lafayette, OH (Coshocton County). Lafayette Mills Apartments is a 40-unit garden-style community built in 2000, comprising 28 two-bedroom/one-bath and 12 three-bedroom/one-bath units across 5 walk-up buildings with 93 on-site surface parking spaces. The property is 100% occupied and has been well-maintained under active compliance monitoring, with no material deferred maintenance identified.

In-place rents average $758/unit against a $980/unit market rate -- roughly 29% upside as the property’s LIHTC and HOME rent restrictions phase out. The extended-use LIHTC compliance period is scheduled to expire 12/31/2028, with HOME-assisted units restricted through 12/31/2029 (buyers should independently verify both dates with OHFA and the recorded Land Use Restriction Agreement).

Offered at $2,700,000 ($67,500/unit, $41.03/SF), with a 9.81% cap rate once converted to market rents. Turnkey operations -- lease-up is complete, and the opportunity is to capture the rent upside as restrictions lift.
