North Chelmsford, MA Ed Riekstins, managing director of NorthMarq Capital’s Boston-based regional office arranged the $8 million refinance of Chelmsford Mills, a 208,698 s/f office property located at 51 Middlesex St. The transaction was structured with a 10-year term on a 25-year amortization schedule. NorthMarq arranged financing for the borrower through its relationship with a local bank. 

“The financing was arranged with a repeat lender,” said Riekstins. “The relationship with the local bank, coupled with the well-managed property with historically strong occupancy, allowed for a successful transaction.”
