A recent pullback in production from both Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac has forced borrowers to seek alternative sources of high leverage, non-recourse, permanent financing for multifamily properties. One of Tower Capital’s capital partners is currently offering a “Private Label” conduit product where they are both the originator, servicer, and B-piece buyer, offering a high level of execution certainty. The 10-year fixed rate loan provides a competitive 3.79% coupon and 3 years of interest only payments. The $17,250,000 loan provided significant cash out to the borrower.
