Hospitality Capital Provider Still Closing Deals Despite Market Conditions
New York, NY - March 30, 2010 = PMZ Realty Capital's Hotel Finance Group, a capital provider that has completed more than a $1 billion in transactions for hospitality assets since 2003, secured $26,000,000 in non recourse financing for the Hilton Washington DC / Silver Spring - Silver Spring, MD. Michael H. Sonnabend, Managing Partner of PMZ Realty Capital made the announcement.
Hilton Washington DC / Silver Spring is a 260-Key hotel offering 20,000 square feet of meeting space, full service dining options and all modern amenities. The hotel is proximate to a wide range of restaurants, major shopping centers and the Washington DC Metro System.
“The non recourse lender that provided this permanent financing was attracted to the consistent performance and experienced long term ownership of this property. Although ownership is an established group with a significant portfolio, their previous financial relationships were unable to provide acceptable financing in today's uncertain marketplace They utilized our relationships with a variety of lending sources to get this deal done”, Mr. Sonnabend commented. The non recourse financing allowed the owner to pay off existing debt, and provided funds for the renovation of the hotel."
Peter Berk, President of PMZ Hotel Finance Group further commented. “ With the limited participation of conduits and most other traditional lenders in the marketplace, we have been successful in closing transactions with a variety of new lending sources that have emerged over the past year. This is a pattern PMZ Hotel Finance Group expects to continue in 2010.”
