Beech Street Closes $17 Million Fannie Mae Loan to Refinance Portfolio of 19 Student Apartment Complexes in Tuscaloosa, AL

   

College Station student houseing porffolio
Tuscaloosa, AL

BETHESDA, MD – Beech Street Capital, LLC announced it closed a $17 million Fannie Mae Dedicated Student Housing loan to refinance the College Station Portfolio, which consists of 264 units in nineteen properties owned by ROAR, LLC, in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.

Chad Thomas Hagwood

Chad Thomas Hagwood, executive vice president of loan originations for Beech Street, originated the loan, and Brandon E. Pate managed the transaction.

 “The College Station Portfolio was an excellent fit for Fannie’s Dedicated Student Housing program,” notes Hagwood.  

“ROAR has a proven track record with student properties, and the properties themselves, within walking distance of campus, are in very high demand with University of Alabama students.” 

 The properties typically operate at 99 percent occupancy. The interest rate on the loan was in the low four percent range.

 The complexity of the portfolio, with 19 properties built between 1920 and 1992 clustered in three groups around the campus, proved no obstacle to Beech Street’s team.  “The hallmark of the Beech Street approach is our ability to adapt to our borrowers’ circumstances,” Hagwood notes.

University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa, AL

 The Tuscaloosa apartment market is dynamic and very active, fueled by the dramatic growth of the University of Alabama over the past ten years and the redevelopment that has occurred in the wake of the devastating tornadoes that hit the city in April 2011, including a multi-million dollar downtown urban renewal project. 

 The fixed-rate loan has a 10-year term and 9.5 years of yield maintenance with 30 years of amortization, payable on an actual/360 basis.

Greystone Closes $43.81 Million Loan for Multifamily Property in San Jose, CA

Chateau LaSalle Drive, San Jose, CA

New York, NY  – Greystone, a leading national provider of multifamily and healthcare mortgage loans, today announced it has provided a $43.81 million Fannie Mae Delegated Underwriting and Servicing (DUS®) Loan for Chateau La Salle, a housing community in San Jose, California.

Tim Thompson

 The loan was originated by Tim Thompson, Managing Director of Greystone’s San Francisco office. The 10-year fixed rate loan transaction has a 30-year amortization for the community that consists of 434 homes.

 “Our long term relationship with Fannie Mae and our deep knowledge and experience of the multifamily market on the West Coast enabled the Greystone team to work quickly and efficiently on behalf of Chateau La Salle,” said Rick Wolf, Senior Managing Director of Greystone’s Fannie Mae production team. “We see immense growth potential in the West Coast and look forward to continued success in the region.”

Robert Mallett

 The Greystone team worked closely with Fannie Mae to ensure that the deal closed on schedule, even as the property’s ownership structure changed a week before the approval deadline. In addition, Thompson and his team were able to secure better pricing for the borrower from an earlier proposal, and Greystone waived all impounds and reserves escrows.

 The deal was brought to Greystone by Robert Mallett, director at Marcus & Millichap Capital Corporation.  Based in Palo Alto, Mallett has worked with borrowers and originators throughout Northern California for more than 20 years and helped facilitate the deal’s terms with Fannie Mae and Greystone.

Rick Wolf

“It’s a pleasure working with a creative and caring organization like Greystone to serve a great property like Chateau La Salle,” said Mallett. “The strong relationship between Greystone and Marcus & Millichap has been a vital component to our success in multiple regions across the country, and I look forward to continuing to work closely with Greystone to provide financing opportunities for clients throughout Northern California.”

 Greystone is ranked as a top-10 Fannie Mae lender by volume and was the number one FHA lender for 2012. With more than 200 mortgage professionals throughout the United States, Greystone is the multifamily industry expert and leader.

Decatur Square, Decatur, GA

The Preston Partnership is the architect for the project and Brasfield & Gorrie is the contractor. Construction is anticipated to begin later this summer.
