Gryphon Real Estate Capital Partners and CarVal Investors Form Transitional Multifamily Bridge Loan Venture
NEW YORK and MINNEAPOLIS, July 20, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Gryphon Real Estate Capital Partners and CarVal Investors announced today the formation of a joint venture to originate multifamily senior bridge loans in primary and secondary markets throughout the United States.
The Gryphon-CarVal Multifamily Loan Program (the "Program") is designed to advance up to 85% of the capital stack in a single execution facilitated by the Program's ability to close on balance sheet. Targeted loans range from $20 million to $75 million with competitive market pricing. Loan servicing and asset management will be retained by the joint venture.
Leading up to the announcement of the joint venture, over $150 million of multifamily loans have closed or are under a signed term sheet. The Program is primed to deploy $1.0 billion or more over the next two years.
Gryphon and CarVal will target sponsors focused on either value-add or lease-up strategies. Value-add opportunities are cash-flowing properties that require time and capital to re-position, perform renovations, improve property operations and increase rents. Lease-up strategies are newly constructed properties that require time to stabilize and season cash flows, prior to securing agency financing or selling the property.
"We believe this is a compelling time to enter the multifamily bridge loan market," said Seth Cohen, a Principal for CarVal Investors responsible for managing loan portfolio investments globally. "Our partnership with Gryphon is rooted in our shared thesis that there is a long-term need for middle income housing, particularly in growing U.S. markets."
Paul Mullaney, Managing Director for CarVal Investors' North American Real Estate business, added, "Gryphon has built an institutional, data-driven platform with extensive multifamily lending expertise, which melds well with CarVal's investment strategy."
"We are excited to join forces with CarVal as we launch this well-capitalized and synergistic venture," said Angelo LoBosco, Managing Partner at Gryphon. "We look forward to building out the Gryphon-CarVal platform by successfully executing on our investment strategy."
Jim Hopkins, a Principal at Gryphon added, "We believe that the combination of Gryphon and CarVal will be a powerful force in the multifamily bridge loan market."
