Applegate & Thorne-Thomsen, P.C., formed in 1998, is a Chicago-based law practice that specializes in affordable housing and community development finance. The firm represents developers, tax credit syndicators, investors, lenders, public housing authorities, and community development organizations in the acquisition, financing, rehabilitation, construction, and preservation of affordable housing and related revitalization efforts. It combines project management with a technology-enabled due diligence platform to structure complex, multi-layered financing and move deals toward closing. Its work spans projects across the United States and Puerto Rico, with substantial experience in federal tax credits (LIHTC, historic, NMTC) and HUD grant and loan programs supporting multifamily housing and public housing redevelopment. Recent developments include a 2020 collaboration with Gardant Management Solutions on the Evergreen project and the addition of an associate to the Tax Group in 2021 to focus on tax-structuring for these credits.
