Grandbridge Real Estate Capital recently closed a $30,500,000 first mortgage loan secured by a 251,000 square foot Class A office building within the Atlanta MSA in Alpharetta, GA.

Grandbridge Mobile, AL-based Vice President Gerry Robbins originated the acquisition transaction. The permanent, fixed rate loan was funded through one of Grandbridge’s correspondent lenders. The loan featured an initial period of interest-only, a 10-year term and 30-year amortization.

“The challenge of the assignment was structuring around the remaining lease term of the anchor tenant in the building whose lease was up for renewal in four years. We were able to work through the underwriting by comparing the current rents at the subject to other Class A products in the market, assessing current vacancy and potential future vacancy in the submarket for a space of this size, along with structuring a flexible leasing cost reserve structure which did not materially impact current cash flow,” said Robbins. “The asset was better than 95% occupied at the time of purchase and offered full-service amenities including an onsite café, gym, and conference facilities.”
