Alex Jaffa of Eastern Union Secures $38.5 Million to Refinance 479-Unit Multifamily Property in Warren, MI

18 Miles North of Detroit, Warren Manor Apartments Has Net Rentable Area of 388,675 Square Feet

NEW YORK, July 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Eastern Union, one of America's largest commercial real estate mortgage brokerages, has arranged a $38.5-million loan to refinance Warren Manor Apartments, a 479-unit multifamily property at 21516 Dequindre Road in Warren, MI. Warren is situated 18 miles north of Detroit.

The mortgage on the property, which encompasses a net rentable area of 388,675 square feet on a 30.72-acre parcel of land, was secured by senior loan consultant Alex Jaffa and loan consultant Sinai Eizikovitz.

The full loan amount included initial funding of $35.7 million, with the ability to earn an additional $2.8 million as rental revenues rise. The refinancing carried a five-year fixed term with one year of interest-only payments throughout that period. The transaction carried a one-percent prepayment penalty over the first two years only.

Financing was provided by Bellco Credit Union. Neither the interest rate nor the identity of the borrower was disclosed.

"This transaction was coming out of a high-interest-rate bridge loan," said Mr. Jaffa. "The property was not at full occupancy. Eastern Union successfully negotiated a large cash-out for the borrower in a market where lenders are shying away from large cash-outs. We provided the borrower with flexibility through a light prepay, while allowing for additional proceeds once the property stabilizes."

Built in 1969, the apartment complex comprises twelve two-story apartment buildings and a one-story pool house, with 295 one-bedroom units and 184 two-bedroom units. Average unit size equals 811 square feet.

Since 2023, ownership has completed approximately $5 million in capital improvements to the property.
