Defeasance

San Francisco, CA
Opportunity: Owner purchased this property at a level that was well below market, and had the opportunity to reposition and stabilize the asset. The existing debt was very expensive and was trapping significant equity upon stabilization.
Challenge: Existing lender was allowing a small window to pay-off their loan, otherwise the borrower was faced with cost prohibitive defeasance charges. Additionally, the borrower needed to unlock approximately $2.5mm in equity.
Solution: Steelhead Capital arranged a Fannie Mae loan in the amount of $14,560,000 at a rate of 6.96% to lock in a long-term rate, and cash-out his trapped equity. Now the borrower has the ability to add leverage as the property continues to perform through Fannie’s second loan program.
