NEW YORK, March 1, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Emerald Creek Capital, a private equity fund out of Manhattan, NY has just refinanced a discounted note in less than 2 weeks. The borrower, an experienced California based real estate owner, was presented with an extraordinary opportunity by their lender. If they refinanced their loan within 2 weeks then they would receive a 30% discount on the payoff. With an original loan balance of $2,540,000 that meant the sponsor could save $700,000. Emerald Creek Capital (www.emeraldcreekcapital.com) was able to conduct their due diligence, complete their legal work and refinance the note in the short time frame presented.
The loan was secured by a 63,000 SF office building in Corpus Christi, TX. "Once they moved forward with our term sheet I got on a plane right away," says Managing Partner Mark Penna. "After walking the building and meeting the sponsors, I realized they were presented with an amazing opportunity."
