Mark Ritchie, a Principal of Gantry, has arranged an acquisition/bridge loan for an extremely active southern California based retail developer. The 84,000 sq. ft. Albertson’s anchored Center is 50 years old and in need of updating. Both banks and bridge lenders were interested in providing financing on a very competitive basis and ultimately a local Bank loaned $8.3MM at a competitive interest rate.

Established in November 1991, Gantry is currently staffed by approximately 50 employees in seven regional offices throughout the western United States. The company services over $6 billion with over 800 loans.
