As Managing Principal of Dantes Partners, Mr. Binitie directs the
acquisition, development, management, and financial activities of the
firm. Mr. Binitie has an extensive tax credit financing experience (LIHTC,
NMTC and HTC) and has closed on financing from nearly every public
capital source available including HOME, HPTF, NSP, CDBG and NIF. Mr.
Binitie maintains a narrow focus on creatively structuring deals that
strive to address the need of his clients, community stakeholders as
well as various government agency partners. By narrowly focusing on
efficiently financing community development transactions, Mr. Binitie
has been successful in adding value beyond the numbers. Mr. Binitie’s
career is underscored by a commitment to creating and preserving
affordable and workforce housing. To this end, since founding Dantes
Partners, Mr. Binitie and his team have closed over $750 million of
unconventional real estate transactions that utilize low-income tax
credits, new market tax credits, tax-exempt bonds, and various other
forms of alternative financing.
