NEW YORK, NY - Hunt Mortgage Group, a leader in financing commercial real estate throughout the United States, announced today it provided a $13 million Fannie Mae loan to finance the acquisition of a multifamily property located in Columbia, South Carolina.

The loan term is 10-years with amortization based on a 30-year schedule with three-years of interest only.  The borrower is Waters Edge Apartments LLC, a Florida limited liability corporation backed by Chris Finlay, CEO of Lloyd Jones Capital, LLC.

“The borrower is a seasoned commercial real estate and multifamily investor and developer,” noted Chad Musgrove, Vice President, at Hunt Mortgage Group. “Waters Edge at Harbison is in good condition and in an area strongly supporting multifamily rentals.  We were pleased to deliver quickly and efficiently for such a quality sponsor.  Customer service is key to our continued success.”

Population in the area is projected to grow over the next five years, vacancies are expected to decrease, and employment is expected to flourish.  This bodes well for Columbia, as it will continue to provide an economic base to support the demand for housing in the area.
