December saw the expiration of several financing options, and many providers may be wondering what is left in the aftermath of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act and the market downturn. The answer is, quite a bit. Transactions are still being completed and have been getting done throughout the depressed economy. This edition's article, "Several Windows of Opportunities Close, but Options Remain" delves into details, and our affordable housing article explains why housing developers may want to take another look at tax-exempt financing in 2011.

We're pleased this edition to include an article on conflicts of interest co-authored by Kevin Kinross of law firm Bricker & Eckler. Other topics include obligated groups and a case study on National Church Residences' nonprofit home health care program.

If you have any questions on these topics or would like us to visit in person to explain them, please don't hesitate to contact us.
