CBRE Arranges $700MM Refinancing for 9-Property Modera Multifamily Portfolio, Including Seattle Property

San Francisco (March 11, 2019) – CBRE has arranged a $700 million loan for the refinancing of the Modera Portfolio; a nine-building collection of Class A+ multifamily assets located across the United States.

Andrew Behrens and Jesse Weber of CBRE Capital Markets’ Debt & Structured Finance team in San Francisco represented the partnership of Rockwood Capital Corporation and Mill Creek Residential in the acquisition of capital from Fannie Mae (FNMA). The seven-year credit facility is a mix of a sub-four percent fixed rate and floating rate debt. The facility is a refinance of a combination of existing construction and bridge financing loans.

“Our team was able to utilize our vast multifamily financing expertise to underwrite each of these newly-built assets that are in various stages of lease-up and demonstrate to lenders the benefits of financing this portfolio,” said Jesse Weber, vice chairman, Capital Markets, CBRE. “The resulting interest from the lending community was significant and culminated in a competitive process, at the end of which Fannie Mae came away from as the winning lender. We are thrilled with the outcome for both our client and Fannie Mae.”

The buildings in the Modera Portfolio are in various stages of lease-up and stabilization and include the properties below:
