NEWARK, N.J., May 19, 2025 – PGIM Real Estate has provided $141 million in floating-rate financing through its core-plus strategy to Longacre Group to refinance SimplyBetter Affordable Housing, a multifamily portfolio in the Bronx, New York. Eastdil Secured served as an advisor on the transaction and represented Longacre Group in arranging the financing.

This affordable housing portfolio comprises 2,021 units across 34 properties, totaling 2.1 million square feet, located in the northern Bronx. The properties are situated in several key neighborhoods, including Kingsbridge, University Heights, Pelham Parkway, Norwood, and Wakefield.

Tom GoodsiteManaging DirectorPGIM Real Estate

“We’re proud to provide financing to help revitalize and bring a large number of vacant units back online within this rent-stabilized housing portfolio in the Bronx, given it’s a vital asset supporting the borough’s housing needs,” said Tom Goodsite, managing director at PGIM Real Estate. “The Bronx remains a resilient market, with strong demand for quality housing that is also affordable given the area’s steady population growth and constrained supply. We’re pleased to support this opportunity by providing financing through our core-plus strategy to Longacre Group.”

Longacre Group has deep experience in New York’s rent-stabilized housing space and has acquired this portfolio with an institutional capital partner advised by FCA Partners. FCA Partners is currently focused on value-add and core-plus, direct and joint venture, and investments in the housing, retail, and medical office sectors.

“We’re excited to partner with PGIM Real Estate and be a part of the solution to the affordable housing crisis in New York City,” said Peter Hungerford, managing member of Longacre Group and PH Realty Capital. “With an average rent of around $1,500, we are proud to support working-class New Yorkers and be stewards of this vital housing product for many years to come.”
