Beech Street Capital Closes $17.6 Million Fannie Mae Loan for Sarasota, FL Apartments


        Huntington Place Apartments, Sarasota, FL

BETHESDA, MD, JUNE 12, 2013 – Beech Street Capital, LLC announced today that it closed a $17.6 million Fannie Mae conventional loan for the acquisition of Huntington Place, a 252-unit property in Sarasota, Florida.

Mitch Sinberg
Senior Vice Presidents Mitch Sinberg and Michael Wallace, headquartered in Beech Street’s Fort Lauderdale office, originated the transaction. 

 The borrower bought Huntington Place off-market and had a tight timeframe for closing.  In response, Beech Street created a dedicated team to accelerate the underwriting.  “We do what it takes to deliver for the client,” Sinberg says.  “In this case, we went from application to closing in 30 days, which is what the client needed.”

 A key element in the approval of the application was the borrower’s commitment to invest a significant amount of capital improvements over the life of the loan, making such interior renovations as new carpets and vinyl flooring, new front doors, new bathroom fixtures and flooring, and new kitchen appliances, countertops, cabinets, and kitchen fixtures.

Michael Wallace
 “We’ve seen the borrower complete similar improvements on other apartments that significantly improved their marketability and cash flow, and we were confident that they would follow through here,” Sinberg points out.  “This is an example of the level of confidence that develops when lenders and borrowers build a relationship by working together.”

 The fixed-rate loan has a 10-year term, with an interest only period at onset.
