LMI Capital Secures Two Loans Totaling $30M in Houston

HOUSTON — Jamie Mullin of LMI Capital has placed permanent financing for the acquisition and refinancing of two garden-style apartment complexes in Houston. Mullin placed a 10-year loan exceeding $24.5 million for a 650-unit asset in southwest Houston. The agency loan was a refinance that provided cash-out proceeds to the borrower and featured a fixed 4.1 percent interest rate and five years of interest-only payments. The borrower will use the excess proceeds to return capital, make ongoing improvements to the property and fund future acquisitions. The second transaction for Mullin pertained to a 250-unit property in Houston’s Brookhollow submarket. The acquisition financing included a 10-year term, five-year interest-only period, fixed 3.9 percent interest rate and leverage exceeding 73 percent of the purchase price. The borrower plans to complete a capital improvement plan, the funds for which will be provided by the lender.
