The GSEs stopped investing in low income housing tax credits in 2008 and now the Federal Housing Finance Agency is contemplating whether to allow Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to resume LIHTC investing. While Fannie Mae is all for it, several affordable housing organizations express concern about the re-entry of the GSEs into the market. Fannie said its presence would enhance the stability of the LIHTC program and serve as a reliable source of capital for affordable housing in diverse economic cycles and markets. As an equity investor, the GSE explained that it will not displace private funding, but will instead look to balance the distribution of equity capital across the LIHTC market to include segments that still suffer from limited liquidity.
