The collateral for this loan is an approximately 25-acre site that will be entitled to allow for the construction of a 300+ unit apartment building. This acquisition sits contiguous to two separate properties the borrower has under contract (or already owns) which will total over 40 acres. Since this closing must happen before year end, the borrower is using Ignite to help finance the acquisition while the entitlements are completed on the entire 40 acres of land. One of the other two properties the borrower has under contract will not close until the entitlement process is completed which is currently estimated to be in early 2022. On the other side of the property, construction has begun on over 1 million square feet of medical space that is owned by Duke Health. The city has already expressed a desire on their master plan to make this corridor the new “heart” of the city which bodes well for the long-term viability of the project and the short term needs to get the property entitled.
