AUSTIN — Walker & Dunlop has arranged a $23 million acquisition loan for The Ballpark, a student housing complex in Austin. Walker & Dunlop provided short-term bridge financing prior to the borrower, Nimes Capital, obtaining a 10-year Freddie Mac loan. Nimes Capital purchased the property through an auction in October 2014. The Ballpark is a 282-unit, 768-bed complex built in 2000. It is located in the East Riverside area near the University of Texas at Austin. Amenities at the Ballpark include a computer lab, free internet, a volleyball court, athletic fields, gym and swimming pool. Will Baker of Walker & Dunlop led the team that structured financing.
