LOS ANGELES (July 14, 2017) Ory Schwartz, managing director of NorthMarq Capital’s Los Angeles regional office, collaborated with Joe Giordani, vice president, to arrange refinancing of $5,850,000 for El Dorado, a 62,482 sq. ft. retail property located in El Centro, California. The transaction was structured with a 10-year term on a 30-year amortization schedule. NorthMarq arranged financing for the borrower through a conduit – CMBS lender. The center is anchored by Harbor Freight and Factory 2 U, and shadow anchored by a Cardenas Market. “This was a challenging deal,” said Schwartz. “The loan we refinanced was from the peak of the market in 2007 and only amortized for the last 5 years of the loan. The city of El Centro is a small market with challenges, but we were able to overcome the push back we received based on a thorough analysis of the subject within this market and some creative loan structuring.”
