Good afternoon, everyone. Welcome to Greystone Housing Impact Investors LP's first quarter 2025 investor call. Thank you for joining. I will start with an overview of our portfolio. Jesse Corey, our Chief Financial Officer, will then present the partnership's financial results. I will wrap up with an overview of the market and our investment pipeline. Following that, we look forward to taking your questions. As far as the performance of the investment portfolio is concerned, we have had no forbearance requests for multifamily mortgage revenue bonds, and all of our borrowers are current on their principal and interest payments as of March 31st, 2025. Physical occupancy on the underlying properties was at 89.5% for the stabilized mortgage revenue bond portfolio as of March 31st, 2025. We continued to advance funds to borrowers under our mortgage revenue bond, governmental issuer loan, and related investments during the first quarter consistent with our funding commitments. Our Vantage Joint Venture equity investments consists of interest in five properties as of today, four where construction is complete, and one site being evaluated for development or sale. For those properties in their initial lease-up phase, we continue to see good leasing activity. Lease turns at the properties that have been leasing for a longer period have been driven by local sub-market conditions. As we have experienced in the past, the Vantage Group, as the managing member of each project-owning entity, will position a property for sale upon stabilization. As previously announced, the Vantage at Tombold project was sold in January 2025. In our announcement earlier today, we noted that the Vantage at Halota's property was sold earlier this week. Jesse will go into the details, but this was a unique sale where the project was acquired by a local housing authority and an affordable housing nonprofit who funded their acquisition with the proceeds of a tax exempt bond offering. The managing members of Vantage at Hutto and Vantage at Loveland completed refinancing of the respective construction loans in the first quarter to lower their interest rates by over 100 basis points each. We have four joint venture equity investments with the Freestone Development Group, one for a project in Colorado and three projects in Texas. One project has completed construction and has begun leasing units. Two projects have commenced construction, and one project has commenced site work. Our joint venture equity investment in Volage Senior Living Carson Valley, a 102-bed seniors housing property located in Minden, Nevada, has received its certificate of occupancy and is expected to open for business operations shortly. The project currently has leased deposits for over 70 of the property's 102 beds. Our joint venture equity investment in the Jessam at Hayes Farm, a new construction 318-unit market-rate multifamily property located in Huntsville, Alabama, is approaching construction completion and has begun leasing activities. With that, I will turn things over to Jesse Corey, our CFO, to discuss the financial data for the first quarter of 2025.
