NEW YORK, NY — Hunt Real Estate Capital, a leader in financing commercial real estate throughout the United States, announced today it provided a Fannie Mae conventional loan in the amount of $6.76 million to refinance a manufactured housing property.
Cayuga Village MHC is located at 9370 Niagara Falls Blvd and is a 275-site, manufactured housing community located in Niagara Falls, New York. The property was built in three stages between the 1950s and 1990s.
The loan is interest-only for the initial three years. The borrower is a family-owned operation that has owned and operated the property for over 50 years.
“The borrowers inherited Cayuga Village, a property that was acquired by their family in October 1969,” commented Zach Casale, Director at Hunt Real Estate Capital. “The new loan will refinance existing debt and establish a reserve that will be used to expand the property, making an estimated 20-42 additional pad sites available for rent. The borrower will also use loan proceeds to complete additional improvements across the park.”
The number of newly added pad-sites will be dependent on demand for either single-wide or double-wide homes.
Cayuga Village MHC is located within the Town of Niagara and the City of Niagara Falls, New York, which is within the Buffalo–Niagara Falls MSA.
“The property is well-located and adjacent to Highway 62, which provides convenient access to the Niagara Falls urban core and various employment and entertainment opportunities,” added Casale. “We were pleased to structure this loan to enable the sponsor to continue to operate – and expand – this property to provide local residents quality affordable housing options.”
The property is close to the Niagara Falls International Airport and several commercial developments, including Niagara Consumer Square, Fashion Outlets of Niagara Falls USA, a Walmart Supercenter and several strip malls.
