ORO VALLEY, ARIZ. — Oro Valley Marketplace, a 521,000-square-foot power center, has received $48.4 million in refinancing. The center is located at the southwest corner of Tangerine Road and Oracle Road in Oro Valley. It is currently 93 percent leased to tenants like Walmart Supercenter, Cinemark Theatre, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Petco, Best Buy and Big Lots. The center had been encumbered with a floating-rate construction loan that had about two years left on its term and loan amounts that exceeded a 65 percent loan-to-value ratio. The loan recapitalization allowed Vestar to right-size the center’s debt while securing long-term, fixed-rate debt. The seven-year permanent loan was provided by the Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company through its subsidiary, Cornerstone Real Estate Advisors, LLC.
