STEELHEAD CAPITAL PROVIDES $18 MILLION LOAN FOR SEAHURST VILLAGE APARTMENTS IN BURIEN, WA.

San Francisco, CA

Opportunity: The borrower was able to purchase this asset at less than 50% of replacement cost.

Challenges: Timing was critical after the borrower failed to arrange bond financing, and the seller was going to “walk” with $500k in earnest money if the borrower didn’t close the deal within 30 days. Additionally, the property’s performance had rapidly declined providing very “thin” debt coverage.

Solution: Steelhead Capital arranged an 80% acquisition and rehab loan in the amount of $18mm. We were also successful in structuring an “earn-out” provision that allowed for the release of an additional $1.5mm in loan proceeds as soon as the cash flow improved. We were also able to negotiate a Seller second loan, interest free for 3 years. This structure will ultimately be refinanced through permanent Fannie Mae financing once the borrower has executed their rehab and stabilized cash flow.
