Transaction Description:
George Smith Partners secured an acquisition bridge loan for the repositioning of a Class-C apartment community in San Diego. The financing includes a holdback that will be used to renovate both the interior and exterior of the Property over a 12-month period including the addition of a single ADU (garage conversion).
Given the Sponsors’ track record and their successful ability to substantially increase rents in this niche market, GSP was able to secure a Lender that could close quickly (within 25 days), without an appraisal, and allow a $1,000,000 2nd TD up to 98% of the total cost of the Project to accommodate an additional private party investment in the Property.
