Friday, July 22nd, 2022
Los Angeles based GreenLake Asset Management LLC has funded a $42,500,000 discounted pay-off loan for the Mall at Stonecrest, a 400,000 square foot super-regional mall located in Stonecrest, GA.
An experienced mall operator approached GreenLake for a loan to support a discounted pay-off, which would enable the sponsor to recapitalize a property that was overleveraged. Despite existing issues, the mall generated strong cash flow during the pandemic. GreenLake was able to navigate a complex situation and provide funding for the borrower to stabilize the property.
Peter Chang, managing principal at GreenLake stated, "This was a complex transaction involving multiple parties which we were able to successfully navigate due to our extensive experience with special situation loans. The sponsor has a great track record and expertise in mall operations, and we strongly believe this team can stabilize the asset within a year."
