01

The transaction

A developer agreed to buy 528 Lakeview Court, a waterfront residence in Miami Beach, for $12.5 million. His plan was to enclose about 2,000 square feet and renovate the house.

02

The challenge

He needed proceeds for the purchase and for the work. A loan sized only to the contract price would not fund the enclosure. The closing date was fixed.

03

Matchpoint’s analysis

We reviewed the waterfront property, the $12.5 million purchase, the plan to add about 2,000 square feet, the sponsor, our first lien position, and the exit. We liked the plan. It supported higher proceeds than the purchase price alone.

04

The structure

We structured $14.5 million of first-position financing, enough for the acquisition and the renovation.

05

Execution

The developer dealt directly with the principals. We structured, documented, and closed the loan in 21 days.

The result

Closed in 21 days with $14.5 million of acquisition and renovation proceeds, sized to the plan to enclose about 2,000 square feet.
