$9,450,000 Ground-Up Condominium Construction Financing to 80% Cost

George Smith Partners structured senior construction debt for 21 luxury condominium units in the Pico/Robertson area of Los Angeles, two miles south of Beverly Hills. Our Sponsor has extensive experience with residential construction in Los Angeles, but recent trends in the construction lending market have placed downward pressure on Loan-To-Cost constraints. “For Sale” product has been especially impacted by revised underwriting criteria. Supportive market data and product demand verified the value of this project. Our healthy Sponsor armed with a pipeline of future transactions allowed us to secure 80% of actual cost financing at an institutional interest rate. Priced at LIBOR + 3.15%, the two year term is supported by a personal repayment guarantee.
