Financing for the acquisition, renovation and stabilization of 2 mixed-use multifamily and retail properties located in Brooklyn (Greenpoint), NY. The properties are located at the end of Bedford Avenue, which funnels the majority of Northside Williamsburg foot traffic coming to Greenpoint. Located on the same block of 644 Manhattan Ave and a block south of 730 Manhattan Ave is the Nassau Avenue station on the IND Crosstown Line of the New York City Subway served by the G train. Upon acquisition, the Sponsor intends to renovate both buildings, extend the ground floor retail to cater to national tenants, restaurants or boutique stores, and complete the residential lease-up of both properties. Ready Capital Structured Finance closed the nonrecourse interest-only loan that features flexible pre-payment with a two-year term and a one-year extension option, inclusive of a facility to provide for interest and carry reserves and future funding for capital expenditures, tenant improvements and leasing commissions.

Refinancing, renovation and stabilization of a 212-unit multifamily property located in the North Tempe/University submarket of Tempe, AZ. The renovation plan includes making exterior and interior improvements and upgrading the units as leases expire. Ready Capital Structured Finance closed the bridge loan with a flexible prepayment provision so that the loan can be expeditiously refinanced under HUD's 223(f) program.
