Ready Capital Structured Finance Closes Non-Recourse Loans for $7.9 Million in Georgia, $7.9 Million in New York and $4.4 Million in New Jersey


NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Dec 15, 2016) - Ready Capital Structured Finance, a nationwide commercial real estate bridge and mezzanine lender, announces the closing of three non-recourse loans in Georgia, New York and New Jersey, totaling $20.20 million.

The Atlanta, Georgia loan is for the acquisition and stabilization of Pharr Manor Residences, a Class B, 48-unit, garden style condominium complex located in the Buckhead neighborhood of Atlanta, Georgia. The subject property is a collection of 48 individual two-bedroom condominium units sitting on 2.53 acres in the heart of Buckhead which is being converted to a rental property. Ready Capital Structured Finance closed the $7.9 million non-recourse interest-only loan that features a 24-month term with one extension option, flexible pre-payment, and is inclusive of a facility to provide future funding for capital expenditures, interest and carry reserves.

The Brooklyn, New York loan is for the acquisition, renovation and conversion of an approximately 12,000 square foot private residence into a 6-unit condominium residence (80 percent complete at the time of closing) located at 277 1st Street in the Park Slope neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York. Simultaneous with the closing, the Sponsor purchased approximately 2,000 square feet of air rights through an adjacent parcel to reclassify the additional square footage. Ready Capital Structured Finance closed the $7.9 million non-recourse interest-only loan that features an 18-month term with one extension option, flexible pre-payment, and is inclusive of a facility to provide future funding for capital expenditures, interest and carry reserves.

The West Deptford, New Jersey loan is for the acquisition, renovation and stabilization of an approximately 106,000 square foot industrial warehouse / office building located at 301 Grove Road in West Deptford, New Jersey. With the increasingly lower vacancy in the South New Jersey submarket, the property is being renovated to increase the industrial space by demolishing the second story office space and removing drop ceilings. Included in the collateral is an additional 4-acre parcel of land that allows for the possibility of expansion. Ready Capital Structured Finance closed the $4.4 million non-recourse interest-only loan that features a 24-month term with one extension option, flexible pre-payment, and is inclusive of a facility to provide future funding for capital expenditures, tenant improvements, leasing commissions, interest and carry reserves.
