W Financial Closes $17 Million Queens, NY Bridge Loan in Two Days


                    138,000-SF Development Site, Flushing Neighborhood, Queens, NY

NEW YORK, NY, Dec. 8, 2014 --Direct lender W Financial has provided a $17,000,000 first mortgage bridge loan for the acquisition of a highly desirable ~138,000 square foot development site in the Flushing neighborhood of Queens, NY.

While the purchasers are fully capable of developing the property on their own, they also sensed an opportunity to “flip” the property to another developer at a significantly higher price and needed to close very quickly.

This highly time-sensitive transaction was made possible both because of the Sponsor's very significant equity contribution and level of preparation, and also because of W's strong familiarity with the local market which accelerated the underwriting process.

The loan closed within two days of the borrower executing W's term sheet.

On select transactions W Financial is pricing its bridge loans as low as 8%, with terms as long as five years depending on the usual factors such as location, loan-to-value ratio, cash flow and quality of the sponsorship.
