PHOENIX – A five-center retail portfolio in the Phoenix metro region has received $20 million in financing. The portfolio contains a total of 117,300 square feet that was nearly 90 percent leased at the time of closing.
All of the centers are shadow anchored by either Fry’s Food & Drug Store or Kohl’s Department Store. Other notable tenants include Subway, Panda Express, Peter Piper Pizza and The UPS Store. Most of the centers were built between 2002 and 2007, though one was constructed in the mid-‘90s.
The new loan is secured by a blanket first lien on the five properties. The loan has a five-year term with a fixed interest rate, a 30-year amortization schedule and a loan-to-value ratio of 74 percent. The new loan was procured through a CMBS lender. Financing was originated by Don Burnes of Johnson Capital’s Phoenix office.
The borrower was a local property owner who develops and invests in retail and office properties throughout Arizona, California and Colorado. The properties included in this transaction are managed by an affiliate of the borrower.
