A conventional process would not meet the timeline. The borrower needed a private lender able to evaluate the asset, size the loan, and fund in days.

We reviewed the property, the $14.5 million purchase price, requested leverage, sponsor, our first lien position, and the downside if the plan changed.
04
$9 million of first-position acquisition financing at 9.5%, with a 48-month term, sized against the $14.5 million purchase.
05
The borrower dealt directly with the principals. We structured, documented, and closed the loan in 7 calendar days and 5 business days.
