Deal Summary
Sherpa Capital Group, a direct private lending firm based in Chicago, funded a $2,500,000 1st lien position bridge loan for the acquisition of a 120-unit hotel in suburban Atlanta, GA. We funded 71% of the $3,500,000 purchase price, while the Borrower contributed 29% cash at closing. The timing from Term Sheet to Close was under 3 weeks. The Sponsor plans to convert the hotel into short-term rentals and workforce housing, which will address the growing demand for affordable housing in the area. We are not funding any renovations for the conversion. The subject property was in good condition. The Borrower had excellent credit. They plan to continue leasing the property and eventually refinance with a conventional loan as an exit strategy. The loan term was set at 12 months. This CRE bridge loan was funded in February 2023.
