NEW JERSEY — Janet Proscia and David Turley of Cronheim Mortgage ar- ranged mortgage financing totaling $13.865 million for three NJ medical office proper- ties. “Lenders like the supply/ demand characteristics of the NJ medical office market,” said Turley. “Medical practices have a low failure rate and build their business around a specif- ic location, which makes them sticky tenants. We capitalized on the asset class’s appeal to complete several medical office assignments.” Cronheim sourced a $3 mil- lion permanent loan for several owner-occupied medical office condos in Fair Lawn totaling about 12,200 s/f. Proscia noted that the borrower’s previous efforts to finance the property had failed due to property val- uation issues. “We were able to secure a bank willing to lean into a leveraged office condo loan. The financing allowed the borrower to cash out some of his value creation and unlock ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS, NJ — Procida Funding’s 100 Mile Mile Fund has made a $1.75 million bridge loan secured by a 38,186 s/f office building.

The building will be completely renovated to house a cancer center and support- ing medical offices. Cronheim worked with a regional bank to complete the financing. Turley said, “Strong sponsorship and an equity stake by St. Peter’s Hospital in the cancer center tenant helped overcome con- cerns around the high price/val- uation PSF and untested nature of the property’s anchors.” Cronheim secured a $7.4 million, 5-year permanent loan from a New Jersey bank for a 31,505 s/f medical office build- ing in Hamilton Twp. “This was a leverage-driven transaction,” said Proscia. “We secured an 80% LTV financing offer and were able to negotiate the rate when the appraised value supported a 74% LTV.” n “Procida provided the reli- able execution and flexibility required by the borrower,” said Kyle Funsch , principal of Procida Funding. “Our abil- ity to meet the needs of our borrower in a timely manner allows them to move fast and take advantage of the favor- able opportunity.” n
