Transaction Overview
George Smith Partners secured three separate loans totaling $6,650,000 for the permanent financing of a portfolio of three properties/15 units in North Hollywood, CA. The Properties were acquired-entitled and developed by the Sponsor to include a combination of multifamily, single-family-detached with ADUs and JADUs. The Properties are located within proximity to each other and were in various stages of lease-up and stabilization at the time of the financing.
The recourse loan refinanced both equity and construction debt with perm financing with a total term of 10 years. The three separate loans represent 70% loan to stabilized value with a minimum 1.15:1.0 DSCR. The loan allows for open prepayment with yield maintenance.
The Sponsor’s business plan provides for much needed housing and increased density developed under the AB-68 Land Use Act for Accessory Dwelling Units passed by Governor Newsom and the State of California in October 2019. GSP was able to secure a lender that was comfortable with the collateral which required varying ownership structures including a land trust as required for JADUs.
