NEW YORK CITY — AVANT Capital Partners has originated a $1.4 million bridge loan secured by a condominium portfolio in Brooklyn. The developer of the portfolio used the two-year loan, which carries an interest rate of 10.75 percent, to pay off a discounted construction loan. The 13-story building includes a vacant ground-floor retail space and 38 residential condominiums that were completed and brought to market in 2009. The property is located at 55 Flatbush Ave. in the the Fort Green neighborhood of Brooklyn. Adam Luysterborghs, founding principal at AVANT, originated the loan.
