Transaction Description:
George Smith Partners secured $21,700,000 of bridge financing for the acquisition of a 136-unit multifamily complex in Phoenix, AZ. The Sponsor plans to increase the value of the asset with exterior improvements and interior upgrades as units turn organically. The Property is in the Uptown submarket of Phoenix, which is an up-and-coming area in the Valley that has seen tremendous rent growth in the last few years. Uniquely, there is a disproportionate amount of three-bedroom units compared to one- and two-bedroom units. There is a lack of three-bedroom inventory in the market that the Sponsor believes will help to increase demand at the Property. The non-recourse financing is priced at LIBOR+3.20% and is sized to 70% of total project cost. It carries a three-year initial term and has a yield maintenance period of 15 months.

Transaction Description:
George Smith Partners secured $11,300,000 in proceeds for the acquisition of a 76-unit multifamily property in a tertiary market outside of Salt Lake City, UT. The bridge loan is structured as $10,795,000 at close and $505,000 in future funding. The fully funded proceeds represent 70% LTC. The loan floats at a rate of LIBOR + 3.15% with a 0.10% floor on LIBOR.
GSP encountered several challenges when discussing the deal with capital providers. Some lenders quoted a spread as high as 3.65% over LIBOR. Other lenders quoted proceeds less than $10,000,000 because they require a 7.5% exit debt yield. Some lenders considered the market to be too small.
GSP was able to source a lender that provided very competitive pricing, an exit debt yield of only 6.50%, and an easy close process. The loan closed in about 60 days without any changes to the signed term sheet.
