Midwest Housing aspires to be the leading regional syndicator of low-income housing tax credits, recognized for its excellent track record of selecting, investing in and protecting quality real estate developments that revitalize the communities in which they are built.

Core Values:

Integrity: as fiduciaries, we are honest and up front in all of our transactions, avoiding even the appearance of impropriety or conflict of interest transactions. Stewardship: we are excellent stewards of our investments (and thus the residents), honoring our written and implicit commitments to our investors, developers, residents and communities. Excellence: we strive to be the best in the business, employing the best individuals, utilizing up-to-date processes and infrastructure, and conservative underwriting parameters. Local Presence: we are and will remain local, believing that a “boots on the ground� approach is the best way to understand and protect the developments. Employee-Focused: our employees are our strength. Recognizing that, we endeavor to provide ongoing development, training and advancement opportunities, to respect a work/life balance and to recognize and reward personal, department and company achievements.

President & CEO’s Message Hello Friends! The theme of our 2019 Annual Report is Building A Foundation. A foundation’s purpose is to strengthen the home that is built upon it, to hold it together through even the worst weather. The stronger the foundation, the more the home can withstand. To me, a safe, decent and affordable home is the foundation upon which people can build a successful life. It provides safety and security, thus allowing you to focus on life’s other needs: health, nutrition, education, employment, family and achievement. Every home MHEG has helped finance, has helped to build a foundation for a family. A place to focus on school or work or just being together. In 2019, we raised over $200 million of new capital for new foundations. We invested in 44 developments, helping build 1,924 safe, decent and affordable rental homes. We are honored to be a small part of making a difference for so many. Of course, none of these accomplishments would be possible without all of our great partners. We are grateful to work with each of you to help build the foundations that create these success stories. Our investor partners are truly compassionate - they represent the best in corporate social responsibility and provide the equity capital necessary to construct the developments. Our developer partners identify communities in need, secure financing sources and put all the pieces together to get a property built. We also gratefully recognize our lending partners, contractors and property managers. It takes real teamwork to provide quality affordable housing. On the MHEG side, I want to thank our volunteer Board of Directors and Operations & Investment Committee members and our great team. I continue to say it each year because it is true, but it is an honor to work with all of you. Thank you for taking the time to read our 2019 Annual Report. We look forward to Changing Lives for a Better Tomorrow in 2020!

John J. Wiechmann President/CEO

Building A Foundation Melissa had lost about everything. After a string of bad luck, four accidents causing several injuries, she lost her house and was unable to work. Living in her car with her service dog Sophie, estranged from her family, sick and exhausted, Melissa was looking for a new start. She was looking for a different life. After a great deal of research, Melissa knew she wanted to move to Colorado. The outdoor activities would be good for her recovery, she just needed a place to live, a stable home that would allow her to heal and rebuild. She found Pinewood Village. Her life was about to change. Pinewood Village II was developed by the Breckenridge Housing Authority to help provide workforce housing for the resort town. The apartments are within walking distance to several stores, a pharmacy, and many employment opportunities. Public transit is also available. Moving into Pinewood II has made all the difference for Melissa, “It’s a huge relief for me, the stress. You can’t relax, we could never sleep, you’re using public restrooms.” She slept on the floor until she could afford furniture, but she was happy to have her own bathroom that was clean. Utilities are included at Pinewood, allowing Melissa to not worry about paying her electricity bill or if she’ll have heat during the winter. “I have a stable living environment that keeps me safe.

7


I know how much I need each month to pay rent.” Instead she’s been able to focus on her health and working at a nearby bank. Melissa has also found a community within her building. Neighbors who look after one another and help each other. “I love this community. I feel like I am part of it, and I have never felt that before in my life.” Her favorite things to are sit and read by the window, enjoying the beautiful views. Living at Pinewood has fulfilled her purpose of developing a better life. “It a hundred percent changed my life. Getting into this unit and getting stability. I’m very grateful. It’s humbling, it makes me have more compassion for other people.” Pinewood II consists of 45 units and was funded through MHEG Fund 42, LP. It is currently managed by Corum Real Estate Group.

“I think having a stable place to live, is key to developing a better life.” 8
