TUSTIN, CA-Dennis Williams, SVP/managing director of NorthMarq's San Francisco regional office, and Robert Hervey, EVP/senior managing director of the firm's Los Angeles regional office, have arranged acquisition financing of $21.7 million for Tustin Cottages, a 93-unit market-rate multifamily property at 1361 El Camino Real here on behalf of borrower the Matteson Cos. NorthMarq arranged the financing through its relationship with a correspondent life-company lender.

Financing was based on a 10-year term and a 30-year amortization schedule. According to Williams, “We negotiated a split funding loan to finance the acquisition of the subject property. The lender provided a market leading rate and was able to accommodate a quick closing with a smooth execution.”

GlobeSt.com was unable to reach NorthMarq prior to deadline to find out the importance of this transaction in the Tustin submarket.

As GlobeSt.com previously reported, in January Nevis Homes sold Tustin Cottages to JB Matteson in a 1031 exchange for $37.9 million. The complex is the newest apartment community in Tustin, a very tight market for multifamily properties. Tustin Cottages features gated access, a community pool, heated spa, barbecue area and an exterior fireplace. The 153.169-square-foot property is currently 92% occupied.
