Transaction Overview
George Smith Partners arranged $4,250,000 of permanent financing for a four-property mixed use located in Glendale, CA. The portfolio totals 25,000 square feet and is 100% leased to a variety of technology-based tenants. The non-recourse financing accomplished the Sponsor’s business plan to refinance an existing loan on three of the properties while adding another parcel to the collateral. The properties are nearly contiguous within a two block area. GSP arranged the original bridge and then perm financing on the original properties in 2013-2015. The existing lender waived prepayment for the existing loan in order to underwrite the new financing. The 10-year permanent loan is sized to 60% LTV and has a stepdown prepayment structure. It includes three years of interest only followed by a 30-year amortization and carries a fixed rate of 5.15% over the life of the loan.
