Construction Loans: $21,025,000 75% LTV, Non-Recourse Predevelopment Financing for a Land Parcel Adjacent to a Southern California University

Rate: One-Month LIBOR + 7.25%
Term: Two years plus one, one-year extension option
Amortization: Interest only
Loan to As-Is Value: 75%
Prepayment: 12-month yield maintenance

GSP arranged the $21,025,000 ($175/Land SF), non-recourse first mortgage from a debt fund for the acquisition of an infill 2.76-acre land parcel located adjacent to a major Southern California university. The acquisition loan will be taken out with a construction loan upon receipt of entitlements for a large-scale student housing redevelopment. GSP worked with borrower and lender to tailor a unique loan structure that provides financing during the entitlement period via an interest and carry reserve. The lender was able to provide a high-leverage loan on an unentitled parcel that provides no cash flow due to the project’s streamlined “by right” entitlement process, experienced sponsorship, and strong market fundamentals. Sized to 75% of as-is value, the acquisition loan priced at 7.25% over One-Month LIBOR for the 24-month loan duration.
