The acquisition of a 102 unit / 612 bed property Regional Capital Group closes on $13.4 million permanent loan for a student housing project
DAHO—Regional Capi- tal Group (“RCG”) closed on a $13.4 million FNMA permanent loan for the acqui- sition of a 102 Unit / 612 Bed Student Housing Complex in Idaho. This was the first acquisition for the borrower that included partners from other organizations with ex- tensive experience in the stu- dent housing market. This asset is not traditional student housing and does not have 12 month leases or parental guarantees. The property is considered “approved” student housing by the University I
but was outside of traditional Agency lending parameters. RCG utilized extensiveAgency lending experience to meet the client’s needs given the unique situation presented. The result was a 4.49% fixed rate for 10 years, a 30 year amortization, and a 75% LTV. In the past few years as the real estate market has been evolving RCG has expanded into long term debt platforms. RCG utilizes a diverse back- ground and vast knowledge to complete transactions spread across a broad range of asset classes. RCG focuses not only
on the execution of specific deals, but also in understand- ing each client’s needs and goals, to complete short term or permanent funding. We also offer alternative loan struc- tures which may fall outside of the traditional lending sources to expedite a closing should an opportunistic situation arise. ■ HFF arranges financing for three- building industrial portfolio
