What it reported doing in 2015

Bayview senior housing (the project) is a nonprofit, tax exempt organization operating a 61-unit apartment complex for the elderly in laporte, Texas. The project is operated under section 202 of the national housing act and regulated by the u.s. Department of housing and urban development (hud) with respect to rental charges and operating methods. The project received a hud section 202 capital advance which places certain conditions on the project for a period of 40 years. The project's section 202 capital advance is considered a major program. The project is also subject to a project rental assistance contract (prac) with hud, and a significant portion of the project's rental income is received from hud.

The project is sponsored and managed by methodist retirement communities (mrc), who also appoints the board of directors of the project.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 98% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
