ATLANTA, GA –– Holliday Fenoglio Fowler, L.P. (HFF) announced it has arranged $38.76 million in financing for One and Two Premier Plaza, a two-building, Class A office complex totaling 316,734 square feet in Atlanta, Georgia.

HFF worked on behalf of the borrower, Zeller Realty Group, to secure the floating-rate loan through New York Life Insurance Company with an initial term of three years plus two 12-month extension options.  Loan proceeds were used to acquire the property and provide funds for future leasing and capital improvement costs.

 

One and Two Premier Plaza is situated on a 7.54-acre site at 5605 and 5607 Glenridge Drive NE in Atlanta’s Central Perimeter.  This places the property within a half of a mile from the intersection of State Highway 400 and Interstate 285, providing connectivity to all of Metro Atlanta.

  Recently renovated, the office complex offers covered building access, structured parking, an exterior patio with barbeque grills, café, conference facility and fitness center. 

The HFF debt placement team representing the borrower was led by senior managing director Ed Coco and senior real estate analyst Matt Casey.

“Zeller Realty Group is a best-in-class owner/operator in several office markets across the country, and with their acquisition of Premier Plaza, Zeller has now entered the Atlanta market with a well-located asset offering the combination of a diverse tenant base with income growth potential,” said Coco. 

“The financing offered by New York Life provided a structure that best aligned with Zeller’s strategy for this asset that has been well-executed with similar properties in other markets across the county, and we look forward to seeing the same success and growth in Atlanta going-forward.”
