Holliday Fenoglio Fowler, L.P. (HFF) announces the permanent financing for
Apollo on H Street, a best-in-class, pre-stabilized residential, retail
and office mixed-use property in Washington, D.C.’s H Street Corridor.

behalf of the borrower, a partnership between Insight Property Group and
institutional investors advised by J.P. Morgan Asset Management, to secure the
fixed-rate loan through TH Real Estate, an affiliate of Nuveen
(the investment management arm of TIAA).
HFF previously arranged construction
financing and joint venture equity for the partnership in 2014 while the
property was in development.

“We are seeing more
and more available capital right now for both pre-stabilized and recently
stabilized assets,” Leachman said. “Given the quality, location and
sponsorship, Apollo on H Street created significant interest from the lending
community, providing the partnership multiple options from which to choose.”
“HFF was fortunate to
have been involved in the permanent financing of the Apollo,” Brickhouse
added. “Insight Property Group and J.P. Morgan have created a
one-of-a-kind asset.
" Due to the
extremely competitive environment for best-in-class, pre-stabilized assets,
multiple lenders were able to get creative underwriting the asset as if it was
stabilized. TH Real Estate was fantastic to work with and ultimately
provided the borrower with the most long-term flexibility.”
