HFF secures financing for southern California multifamily properties

SAN DIEGO, CA – The San Diego office of HFF (Holliday Fenoglio Fowler, L.P.) has arranged financing for Sommerset La Costa, a 48-unit multifamily community in Carlsbad, and Monarch Terrace Apartments (top right photo) a 56-unit multifamily community in Glendale, California.

HFF senior managing director Tim Wright (top left photo) and associate director Pat Burger worked on behalf of a joint venture between an investor portfolio advised by the US real estate business of UBS Global Asset Management and Silverado Canyon Partners, LLC to secure two five-year loans through Aetna Life Insurance Company. The fixed-rate loans were structured as acquisition and renovation bridge loans.

Sommerset La Costa is located at 2937-2949 Unicornio Street at the corner of Alga Road and El Fuerte Street in La Costa, a submarket of Carlsbad. The fully-leased, condo-mapped property has six residential buildings with 48 two-bedroom/two-bath units. Each unit has its own garage and there is a community swimming pool and leasing office on-site.

Located at 1595 East Chevy Chase Drive in Glendale, Monarch Terrace Apartments has easy access to the Ventura and Glendale Freeways and is situated across the street from the Glendale Adventist Medical Center.

The three-story property has an interior garden-style configuration with studio, one- and two-bedroom units averaging 759 square feet each. Community amenities include a gated pool, underground parking garage, laundry facilities and storage space.

“Both Sommerset La Costa and Monarch Terrace Apartments will undergo significant exterior and interior renovations that will raise Sommerset up to a Class A property and Monarch Terrace to a Class B in their respective submarkets,” said Wright.

Silverado Canyon Partners, LLC currently owns five apartment properties totaling 473 units in Southern California.
