    $5.47 MM for Acquisition and Lease of Educational Institution for Employment Opportunities for Low-Income Students

Ohio Technical College – Cleveland, OH

Clearinghouse CDFI (CCDFI) is demonstrating a commitment to fostering educational opportunities with a $5,475,000 loan for Cleveland Portfolio Fund, LLC. This financing enables Cleveland Portfolio Fund to acquire a commercial property that serves as a vibrant educational hub for Ohio Technical College (OTC).

Cleveland Portfolio Fund is acquiring an industrial warehouse facility that serves as a dynamic educational space for OTC. Financing provided by CCDFI supports the purchase of this commercial property which Cleveland Portfolio Fund intends to lease back to the college. The acquisition and subsequent lease of the property effectively alleviates some of OTC’s debt obligations, paving the way for greater financial freedom.
