The acquisitions included 260 units across two properties in the thriving Spring Branch submarket. While the assets shared a similar location, the transactions required distinct capital solutions. In the first transaction, Jamie Safier of LMI secured a 10-year CMBS loan at a low fixed rate. The loan represented over 90 percent of the purchase price. For the second acquisition, Safier arranged a five-year loan at a fixed rate of 4.35 percent. The loan equated to over 75 percent of the asset’s purchase price. The deal also featured a flexible prepayment structure. Amid the closings of the two acquisition loans, Safier closed a $2.5 million refinance loan for a 50-unit multifamily property in Tomball. The 10-year agency loan arranged at a fixed rate of 4.34 percent provided significant cash-out proceeds for the client within 18 months of its original acquisition.

PORT ROYAL, S.C. — NorthMarq Capital has arranged and closed a $9.1 million equity investment on behalf of Prominent Realty Group (PRG) for the purchase of a $38 million apartment property, the 400-unit Preserve at Port Royal located in Port Royal, S.C. The $9.1 million equity infusion came from an institutional investor that specializes in value-add properties. “The main challenge about this transaction was its location being perceived as tertiary,” says Will James, vice president of NorthMarq Capital’s Atlanta office who represented PRG. “The property was built in 2006 and in a great location within the city of Port Royal. Just 20 minutes away and closer to Hilton Head, a similar vintage project traded for a 20 percent premium just because it was on the way to Hilton Head Island.” PRG’s basis in the property is at or just below replacement cost, adds James. “Once the state sells the 50-acre Port of Port Royal, the waterfront will become a vibrant retail and tourist destination, further improving the rental market on the Port Royal island.” Economic generators locally include the University of South Carolina Beaufort campus, Parris Island’s Marine Corps, and the Beaufort Air Naval station, which is completing a $300 million runway and hangar facility …
