Coffee with CARW – WHEDA Recap

March 19, 2025 by Amanda Hoffman

CARW hosted a Coffee with CARW Session on Maximizing WHEDA Tools for Economic Development highlighted how Wisconsin’s $525 million in low-interest loan programs can be leveraged by commercial real estate professionals and municipalities to spur economic growth.

Led by WHEDA’s Jon Searles, Shreedhar Ranabhat and More Housing Wisconsin’s Curt Witynski, the session provided a roadmap for accessing these funds, outlining eligibility criteria and best practices for public-private collaboration. Key topics included an overview of WHEDA’s commercial real estate programs, details on loan products like Vacancy-to-Vitality and Restore Main Street, and case studies showcasing successful projects.

With significant financing opportunities available, the discussion underscored the importance of strategic partnerships to drive impactful development initiatives across Wisconsin.
