GREENVILLE, N.C. AND MEMPHIS, TENN. — NorthMarq Capital has arranged $49.8 million in non-recourse financing for two student housing communities in North Carolina and Tennessee. The financing includes a $21.7 million construction loan and $5.5 million mezzanine loan for Gather Uptown, a 405-bed student housing community underway near East Carolina University in Greenville. Steve Whitehead of NorthMarq Capital’s Dallas office and Rob Hervey of the firm’s Los Angeles office arranged both loans through an unnamed life insurance company. Both interest-only loans have three-year terms. Whitehead and Hervey also arranged the $22.6 million refinancing of Gather on Southern, a 435-bed student housing property located across the street from the University of Memphis campus. The community was fully occupied at the time of financing. The five-year loan features one year of interest-only payments followed by a 30-year amortization schedule. Whitehead and Hervey arranged the loan through an unnamed life insurance company, and the unnamed borrower will use the financing to take out an existing construction loan.
