TEMPE, ARIZ. — Hunt Real Estate Capital has funded a $35 million Freddie Mac conventional multifamily loan for the refinancing of Contempo Tempe, a manufactured housing community located in Tempe. The name of the borrower was not released.
The new loan will refinance existing debt and includes a cash out that will be used to acquire additional manufactured housing properties. The loan has a 10-year term amortizing over 30 years, and three years of interest-only payments.
Age-restricted to residents age 55 or older, the 454-pad community features three single-story buildings containing the clubhouse/leasing office, fitness center and maintenance building. Built in 1974, the property underwent recent capital improvements including signage updates, a pool remodel, exterior painting, clubhouse A/C replacement, spa heater replacement, security cameras and upgraded power pedestals. The borrower plans to renovate the existing shuffleboards into a two-court pickleball arena with shaded bleachers.
Tom Houlihan of Phoenix-based Sterling Mortgage and Investment arranged the financing for the borrower.
