NEW YORK CITY — Sabal Capital Partners, a diversified financial services firm specializing in real estate, lending and banking, has arranged $129 million in Freddie Mac Small Balance Loans for a multifamily portfolio in Bronx. The borrower was Emerald Equity Group. Encompassing more than 850 workforce housing units, the financing is the largest single Small Balance Loan (SBL) transaction processed through the Freddie Mac SBL program since its inception in 2014. The financing will preserve the units as affordable. Sabal Capital used SNAP, its proprietary servicing portal, to independently analyze, underwrite and close each of the 34 refinance loans in the portfolio instead of a bulk transaction.
