Polizzo and DesRochers of NorthMarq Capital arrange $6.15 million financing

Deanna Polizzo, vice president and Ernest DesRochers, senior vice president and managing director of NorthMarq Capital's New York City office, arranged a $6.15 million construction/permanent for a 30-unit student housing property located at 190 Pine Rock Ave. According to Polizzo, the subject property is located adjacent to the campus of Southern Connecticut State University making it an ideal candidate for a student housing development. She said, "Southern Connecticut State University, like many other universities in the country, has a growing demand for additional housing. The property's location adjacent to the North Campus of SCSU makes it virtually on-campus housing for students. The borrower is an experienced student-housing developer, and the lender is very familiar with the school and market. NorthMarq, with its experience in the market and with the property type, was able to assemble all the necessary ingredients for a successful transaction." Financing for this transaction was based on a term of up to 2 years for the construction loan converting to a 10-year permanent and a 30-year amortization schedule and was arranged for the borrower, 4857 Main Street, L.L.C, by NorthMarq through its relationship with a regional bank. In addition Polizzo and DesRochers arranged a first mortgage refinance in the amount of $12.2 million for Summerhill Marketplace, an 88,700 s/f grocery-anchored retail property located at 657 Rte. 18 South in East Brunswick, New Jersey. Stop and Shop is the major tenant at the center. Financing was based on a 10-year term and a 30-year amortization schedule and was arranged for the borrower, CV Summerhill, LLC, by NorthMarq through its relationship with Royal Bank of Scotland. Polizzo said, "The subject property is located in a strong retail market, provides excellent visibility and has been well maintained making it one of the leading shopping centers in the area."
