Tremont Realty Capital arranged specialty financing to provide for the acquisition of residential and commercial tax liens in the northeast and southeast regions of the United States.
David Ross, a managing director with Tremont, arranged the $2.5 million line of credit, which was funded through a Tremont capital relationship.
