Transaction Description:

George Smith Partners secured $22,050,000 of non-recourse acquisition and development financing for the reposition of a 100,000 square foot mixed-use office building and a 334 stall parking garage located in the Roosevelt Row Art’s District of Downtown Phoenix. The main tenant of the building recently vacated, leaving the Property with low occupancy. The Sponsor was able to acquire the asset with LOI’s for several large tenants in tow. The business plan was to reposition and stabilize the remainder of the mixed-use building after executing the leases shortly thereafter.

Sized at 70% of total project costs, the loan includes a future funding facility to cover tenant improvements and leasing commissions. The rate floats at 30 Day LIBOR plus 6.85% and carries a two year term with a one year extension option. The Lender was able to underwrite and deliver an executable term sheet in less than 48 hours. The loan funded roughly three weeks from the date of the application, meeting the required short window for closing. The Sponsor was also given occupancy credit based on the LOI’s, with executed leases allowed as a post-closing item. This offered the Sponsor more time to negotiate more favorable lease terms.
