RICHLAND, WA – Gantry has arranged financing in the amount of $11,700,000 secured by a new Homewood Suites located in Richland, Washington. Demetri Koston and Skip Slavin, Vice Presidents for Gantry in Washington, worked on behalf of the borrower to arrange the new loan facility.

Built in 2015, the property has 115 rooms and is well located alongside the Columbia River in the heart of Washington’s wine country. The hotel is the first Homewood Suites in the Tri-Cities area of Washington. New hotels can be a challenge to finance without significant seasoning. The team at Gantry was able to identify a lender which appreciated the positive trends in revenues and occupancy, and underwrite to a highly competitive level.
