Cushman & Wakefield has arranged a total of $6,622,500 in financing for two transactions exclusively arranged by Directors George Gnad and Jonathan Kristofich along with Associate Michael Winters.
A $4.5 million LP equity position was arranged on behalf of Arena Shoppes LLC for a retail building at 7300 West McNab Road, in North Lauderdale, Florida. The equity provider was an undisclosed U.K. equity source. The retail center, a former Walmart, contains approximately 92,596 square feet. The sponsor is retenanting / rehabilitating the building, which will include a new tenant, Ross Dress For Less as anchor.
"I am truly proud to have been part of such a creative and professionally executed deal. Both sponsor and equity provider are perfect complements for each other, and I am confident that with their extensive experience and knowledge of the market, they will exceed expectations throughout the life of the project," said Gnad.
A $2.12 million loan was arranged to refinance a 28,600-square-foot warehouse building at 59-71 Oak Street, Hackensack, New Jersey. The new loan features a cash out, reduction in interest rate and extended term for seven years. The lender was Atlantic Stewardship Bank. The borrower was 59-71 Oak Street LLC.
"The refinance and cash out of 59-71 Oak Street, Hackensack reflects the strength of well-located buildings within the Bergen County warehouse and distribution market," said Kristofich.
"Through our extensive marketing approach, we solicited significant interest from many local lenders and negotiated a very competitive mixture of rate and term for our client," added Gnad.
