PHOENIX, AZ - The Barrington Regent is a Class B multifamily asset, built in 1985 with a total of 124 apartment units. The property is well located within the "mid-town" area of downtown Phoenix, and offers its residents a "resort-style" amenity package within an urban infill location.
According to Slaugh, "The Sponsor purchased the asset a year earlier through a "short-sale" transaction with New York Life, buying the asset for nearly half of the previous owner’s basis. Having completed a recent renovation and repositioning of the asset, the new owner wanted to replace the existing floating-rate loan facility with longer term permanent debt."
Steelhead Capital packaged and marketed the financing request, and was able to secure a new 10-year, fixed-rate, non-recourse apartment loan through Freddie Mac. The interest rate was locked at 4.11% with 2 years Interest Only and provided over 25% of the original equity as "cash-out" to the partnership inside of 12 months of the original acquisition date. The Borrower was able to quickly reposition the asset and secure permanent financing with extremely attractive financing terms.
