Brookline Housing Authority (BHA)
Request for Qualifications for Accounting Services

The Brookline Housing Authority is seeking proposals from qualified accounting firms to provide accounting services associated with the redevelopment of O’Shea House and Morse Apartments utilizing a 4% LIHTC and tax-exempt bond execution. Both properties, each a 100-unit public housing development, will convert at closing to Section 8 Project-Based Vouchers (PBV) under HUD’s Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) and Section 18 programs. The first transaction, O’Shea, is expected to close in Spring 2019; Morse Apartments is projected to close by the end of 2019. The BHA is looking for firms with particular expertise in low income housing tax credits. Experience with RAD conversions and working with a Public Housing Authority are highly desirable.

The RFP will be available on October 1, 2018 on the BHA website at brooklinehousing.org/public-bids.

Proposals must be submitted by email to pdober@brooklinehousing.org as described in Section 6 of the RFP. Proposals must be received by Wednesday 24, 2018 no later than 4:00 PM EST. Proposals received after this deadline will not be accepted.

The BHA reserves the right to reject any proposals, to cancel this RFP and to waive informalities if it is in the public interest to do so.
