Chancellor Properties obtained a $15-million conduit loan from PNC Real Estate Finance to buy the 5045 Crenshaw Rd. development. The seven-year, fixed-rate loan has a sub-5.5% interest rate, according to Frank Satterfield, founder and principal of Houston-based Harbor Capital Group.
Satterfield tells GlobeSt.com that a lot of lenders were fighting to get in on the deal, but PNC Real Estate Finance was able to offer the highest loan-to-value at 80%. "We were asking for a $15-million loan and PNC was able to get there and some of the others weren't," he says, adding the financing closed within 90 days.
"PNC Real Estate Finance was impressed with the experience and track record of Chancellor Properties," Satterfield says. He says the lender also felt comfortable with the market because it's difficult to get properties zoned for multifamily development in Pasadena.
