Borrowers Looking to Debt Funds in a Nervous Financing Market

by Sarah Daniels June 20, 2023

For real estate investors who have an acquisition teed up or who need to refinance, the prospects of finding debt today are arguably the bleakest they have been since the financial crisis 15 years ago. Higher interest rates and concerns over growing distress convinced banks and other lenders to move to the sidelines several months ago, thwarting commercial real estate investment sales. In turn, that is fueling broad uncertainty over what properties are really worth, which only begets more unease among banks. But private debt funds, which typically provide short-term rate bridge loans, are more likely to make deals when banks will not, says Jeff Salladin, a managing director with Dallas-based debt fund Revere Capital. That’s because debt funds like Revere raise capital from sophisticated investors to fund their loans, he says, while banks rely on deposits. That subjects banks to stringent regulatory oversight, which is especially intense in today’s debt climate. “All investors dislike uncertainty, and banks are investors by another definition,” states Salladin, who oversees real estate lending for Revere. “As a result, we could be in the first inning of a golden era for debt funds like ourselves, because we’re more flexible in way banks can’t be.” …

by Kristin Harlow June 19, 2023

CHICAGO — The Habitat Co. and P3 Markets have opened Phase I of 43 Green in Chicago’s Bronzeville neighborhood. The 99-unit, mixed-income apartment building is located at 4308 S. Calumet Ave. The project marks the first equitable transit-oriented development (ETOD) on Chicago’s South Side, according to the developers. Since 2013, the City of Chicago has been encouraging transit-oriented development near Chicago Transit Authority and Metra rail stations. In 2020, the city published its ETOD Policy Plan, which aims to drive investment near transit in disinvested communities, preventing displacement in communities facing rising housing costs and promoting affordable housing options near transit in low-affordability communities. Phase I is the largest of three planned buildings within the $100 million 43 Green development. The 10-story building features 5,500 square feet of retail space and amenities such as a fitness center, rooftop terrace, business center, picnic area, community room, laundry facilities and bicycle storage. Half of the units are reserved for households earning up to 60 percent of the area median income, with the remainder leased at market rate. Habitat has also secured construction financing for Phase II, and is expected to break ground on that 80-unit building by the end of June. Completion …
