W Financial has provided the following bridge loans which were handled by Jarret Schochet, David Heiden, Andrew Singer and TJ Randall:
• $2,150,000 bridge loan to acquire a multi-family property on Chancellor Avenue in Newark, NJ. The borrower required a bridge loan to close quickly and satisfy a 1031 tax-free exchange deadline. The borrower plans to refinance the W Financial loan with conventional financing upon the stabilization of the property.
• $9,175,000 bridge loan collateralized by a shopping center on Westwood Boulevard in Orlando, Florida. The borrower needed to refinance a maturing bank loan. He plans to stabilize the property by leasing up the vacant spaces and then repay the W Financial loan by refinancing with a conventional lender.
• $4,000,000 bridge loan collateralized by a 79-acre parcel of land within a planned mixed-use campus with uses that include medical, assisted living and a data center in Totowa, NJ. The borrower required a fast closing to fund a deposit to purchase another property at auction. Given the very low loan to value, it is anticipated that the borrower will request an increase in the loan in a few months. He intends to repay W Financial with a sale of two of the parcels which are under contract.
