$8,000,000 Cash Out Refinance of a Multifamily Renovation; Los Angeles, CA

George Smith Partners arranged $8,000,000 in cash out financing for a multifamily property in Los Angeles. The Sponsors’ goal was to quickly purchase, renovate and lease the Property. Due to the competitive market for multifamily in Los Angeles, six months ago, GSP arranged an expensive, quick-close financing to allow our Sponsors to complete the purchase of the subject property faster than their competitors. GSP financed the property at 80% of purchase price with a private debt fund. Now, GSP has refinanced the Property allowing the Sponsor to recover the capital invested in renovation and tenant buy-outs. This financing now reduces the cost of capital and allows the Sponsor to receive cash out to cover all capital expenditures. Most lenders would have required additional seasoning or limited the cash out. Through utilizing GSP’s relationships and the competition GSP created in the market, the Lender was willing to provide the requested capital.
