W Financial provides $8.25 Million second mortgage for retail property in New York City’s Meatpacking District


NEW YORK, NY -- W Financial has provided an $8,250,000 second mortgage bridge loan for a three-story, 15,000 square foot retail property on West 14th Street in NYC's Meatpacking District, located near the High Line and at the nexus of what has become a highly sought-after location for luxury retailers.

 The property is a commercial condominium unit. W's loan is junior to a seller-provided, purchase money mortgage and was utilized to fund a tenant buyout so that a new lease can be signed with a new tenant at a much higher rent. Our borrowers will either refinance with a bank, or sell the property.

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.

Marcus & Millichap Arranges Sale of Columbia Park Apartments in Tampa, FL for $1.325 Million

              
Michael Donaldson
TAMPA, FL  – Marcus & Millichap (NYSE: MMI), a leading commercial real estate investment services firm with offices throughout the United States and Canada, announced the sale of Columbia Park Apartments, a 24-unit multifamily community located in Tampa, Florida, according to Richard D. Matricaria, regional manager of the firm’s Tampa office. The $1,325,000 sales price equates to $55,208 per unit.

Michael Donaldson, vice president investments and Nicholas Meoli, senior associate in Marcus & Millichap’s Tampa office, represented both parties in the transaction. 

Columbia Park Apartments are located at 14309 North 18th Street in Tampa, Fla.  Built in 2004, the buildings are constructed of concrete block with a stucco exterior and are situated on approximately 2.36 acres of land. 

The property consists of three, two-story residential buildings comprised of entirely three-bedroom/two-bathroom units with 1,040 rentable square feet.  Interior amenities include full-size washer and dryer connections in all units, patios/balconies, spacious floor plans, ceiling fans in living rooms and fully equipped kitchens.

Nicholas Meoli
            “Bringing an REO foreclosure sale to market in 2014 is not what it used to be several years ago,” voices Michael Donaldson. “This property garnered so much interest from the local, national and international markets that our tour days were completely booked with upwards of several hundred inquiries into the property” adds Donaldson.

“Part of the appeal of the property was that it was a 2004 concrete block construction and the unit mix was comprised of entirely three-bedroom floor plans, making this a rare find in a property of this size,” says Nicholas Meoli.

“Through our extensive marketing campaign in conjunction with Auction.com, we were able to close on the asset with an out-of-state cash buyer who was attracted to the positive property attributes and proximity to USF and the surrounding hospitals,” concludes Meoli.
