The loan was secured by the 120-unit affordable apartment complex at 6267 Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. called Summerset Apartments. In June, Fannie Mae hired a company to inspect the complex to see if it was being kept in good condition as the loan documents required, the lawsuit alleged. Investigators observed a roach infestation, inoperable security keypads, damaged entry gates, potholes, an inoperable pool and a broken window.
