BOSTON — Newmark has arranged a $690 million CMBS loan for the refinancing of a 13-property, 4,077-unit multifamily portfolio in the Sun Belt. The borrower, Boston-based West Shore, is refinancing properties in five Florida cities — Daytona Beach, Gainesville, Melbourne, Ocala and Tallahassee — as well as Columbia and Lexington, S.C.; Knoxville, Tenn.; and Bryan, Texas.
Purvesh Gosalia arranged the cash-out, single-asset single-borrower (SASB) refinancing through Citi. The transaction represents the largest multifamily closing in the United States year-to-date, according to Newmark.
