“Belmont Heights I and II have long been a critical affordable housing resource for families in Tampa,” said Kenneth Crawford, Executive Vice President of Michaels Development. “Michaels and our partner, The Tampa Housing Authority, are grateful to Ryan and the entire team at Greystone for their help in ensuring Belmont stays affordable, well capitalized, and well-maintained for years to come through this successful transaction.
