Eric Von Berg, a Principal at Gantry, and Tom Dao, an Associate Vice President at Gantry, called on many lenders to source the best rate and terms. The selected life insurance company lender was impressed with the excellent tenancy history, well managed property and strong sponsorship. Using creative structuring, the lender got comfortable with near-term rollover risk in the rent roll. The borrower was happy to get this loan refinanced at a historically low market rate that will be fixed for 15 years. Brad Skepner, one of the property owners, commented, “Eric and Tom started looking at this transaction early and persisted through many months in developing the right structure that attracted the right lender for us.”
