RE: Grant Proposal Number Two
Gentlemen:
We are requesting a grant of $500,000 to provide housing assistance to 30 families that
qualify under the income guidelines as shown in your RFP and to establish a revolving
fund fi.om which to fund additional homes after the current sales tax program expires.
We are also including the following:
l. Letter of Qualifications and Experience
2. Calmeity to perform
3. Acknowledgment and Certification
4. G-rant narrative
The contact person for this proposal is Randy Farrar, DBA Miramar Homes. I can be
contacted at 361-992-9583, or on my cell phone at 361-816-5781.
Yom truly,

Qualifications and Experience:
I am uniquely qualified to fulfill the grant request as I have 20+ years of experience in the
home-building industry. I have built homes, sold homes, and performed warranty service
on homes_
I have been active in affordable housing for the last four years, the past two years in
Corpus Christi and the prior two years in Houston working with thek HOH grant
program. In Houston I was responsible for producing approximately 30 grant homes and
approximately 700 non grant homes_

Capacity to Perform:
Capacity to perform is influenced by several factors,
a. Conslxuction Personnel
b. Borrowing Capacity
c. Lot Availability
d. Subcontractor Availability
e. Material Suppliers
Based on b_istorical performance in the home-building industry, we can produce 60
houses per year without additional personnel. This assumption is based on a four month
construction cycle and a work load of 15 houses per cycle. Additional production, if
required, would be accomplished by hiring additional Construction Managers.
We have construction borrowing capacity with three area banks so that capital
considerations should not be a limiting factor.
The subdivision in which we plan to build the houses, CAP Estates, has a lot availability
in phase one in excess of forty lots so lot availability should not be a limiting factor_
Based on our request of 30 grants, we propose to start one house each week starting in
late March or early April 2005. The subcontractors that lake the longest time firm'ne are
the foundation and frame, and they take one week or less each. We have a subcontractor
for all phases of construction and at least one back up subcontractor for each of these
trades so that labor is not a limiting factor.
I have open accounts with all of the suppliers that are necessary to build a home from
start to finish and they are large enough so that a shortage of materials should not occur.

Proposal Number Two
Grant Proposal
We are requesting a grant of $500,000 in order to assist 30 families to purch~e
new homes with each family receiving $15,000 to $20,000 to buy down the mortgage and
or pay closing costs on their home. The assistance would be in the form ora loan
repayable to the 4a Board that would not bear interest and would not be payable until the
home resold. Since the sales tax program for aflbrdable housing is only a fifteen year
program, this would form a revolving fund which could be used to fund additional houses
after the sales tax money expires. This would allow the family to benefit fi.om the
appreciation on the entire value of the home without the burden of any additional
payments. The criteria for awarding these grants would be the income guidelines as
supplied in your RFP and the cost of the home as explained below. This would allow us
to leverage the $500,000 into improved property with a value of approximately
$2,500,000, and houses for 30 families that may not otherwise be able to achieve home
ownership.
Our time frame for this request is based on the backlog of buyers needing
assistance. The mortgage company with which I have a working relationship has
applications for 100+ persons that have requested grant money fi.om the city and they
meet the grant guidelines. However, the city only has enough HUD money for 27 grants
this year, so that this grant request would help fill that void. This mortgage company
does not have a working relationship with any other builder. We could start writing
earnest money contracts as soon as we are notified of our grant award. ConsU'uction of
the houses could then start in approximately 30 to 45 days based on the buyers obtaining
mortgage company loan approval. I am projecting the start of conslrucfion in early May
2005_
In order to keep an orderly and well managed job site, we would only start one
house per week. Under this process the first home would start in early May 2005, and the
last home would start in mid November 2005. The construction time on a new home is
thiee to four months with the variable being weather. This would mean that the fn'st
home would be complete about mid August 2005 with one house completing each week
thereafter_ The last home would be complete in mid February 2006, which would
complete the grant program.
The houses built under this program will range in size from 1,050 sq fl to 1374 sq
ft. The price range will be fi.om Sg1,500 to $93,500. They will all have carpet and vinyl
flooring, appliance package, plastic laminate kitchen counter tops and cultured marble
bathroom vanity tops. They all have 3 bedrooms and 2 baths with garages rlt~ging from 1
car to 2 car with and overhead garage door_ The floor plans that have asales price of
under $90,000 will qualify for a $15,000 grant and the homes over $90,000 will qualify
for a $20,000 grant.
