German Investor Expanding a U.S. Commercial Portfolio

The Client

An experienced real estate investor in Berlin wanted to break into the U.S. commercial real estate market, specifically targeting warehouse and logistics spaces in Texas. He faced rejections from several U.S. banks due to lack of U.S. credit and the complexity of commercial underwriting.

How We Helped

Our Commercial Lending Division worked closely with the client to finance a $2.3M logistics facility outside of Houston. We structured a hybrid loan that covered 65% of the purchase and 100% of renovation costs, using projected lease income as part of the qualification. Within eight months, the property was leased to a regional distributor, generating solid monthly yield.
