Madison Realty Capital Acquires $23.5MM Non-Performing Note for Brooklyn Condo Development from Canadian Bank

NEW YORK, Dec. 12, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Madison Realty Capital (MRC), an institutionally backed commercial real estate investment fund and asset manager specializing in flexible debt and equity financing solutions for middle-market transactions throughout the United States, announced the acquisition of a defaulted note sold by a Canadian bank.

The unpaid principal balance on the loan was $23.5 million and is secured by the remaining 49 units and parking of the Breakers at Sheepshead Bay, a 75-unit waterfront residential condominium development located at 3112-3144 Emmons Avenue in Brooklyn, NY.

The overall loan purchase price of the property was not disclosed. Brian Shatz, Co-Founder and Managing Member of MRC, made the announcement.

"After commencing the project in 2004, and completing it in 2009, the developer fell into foreclosure and ultimately filed for bankruptcy in August 2012," Mr. Shatz said.  "Having both experience in bankruptcy and restructuring, as well as a fully integrated real estate platform, gave us the knowledge base to understand the nuances of a complicated real estate transaction and close in the very quick timeframe required by the bank. As we have done with previous acquisitions, should we end up taking title to the property, MRC intends to tap into our vertically integrated platform of in-house construction, asset, and property management capabilities to maximize the property's long-term value."

MRC has now closed debt purchase transactions with more than 30 counterparties including regional, local and international banks, special servicers, and other funds.
