BMC Capital originated a $2.1 million loan for 1st Avenue Apartments in Mesa, Ariz.

Dallas, TX -- (ReleaseWire) -- 11/10/2006 --BMC Capital announced on Friday, November 3, 2006, that it originated a $2.1 million loan for the acquisition of 1st Avenue Apartments, a 52-unit complex located at 633 West First Avenue in Mesa, Ariz.

“The borrower originally sought a 65% LTV loan,” says Susanna Reust, a vice president at BMC Capital’s Phoenix office. “But we were able to provide a 75% LTV. The extra leverage from this loan allowed the borrower to purchase a second property with the proceeds of the 1031 exchange.” The loan also featured a thee-year fixed rate and a 30-year amortization. Brian Smuckler of Marcus and Millichap represented the California borrower.

BMC Capital is a leading lender for small-balance multifamily loans in the Southwest market and anticipates originating at least 100 such transactions in 2006.
