WE ARE A BALANCE SHEET LENDER

We use our own balance sheet to make structured and tailored loans on larger, complicated deals. Because we lend across the entire capital stack:

  • We control the inter-creditor agreement
  • We own the first loss piece
  • Increased surety of closing the deal
  • Minimize potential re-trades

We are a balance sheet lender with a broad range of loan products across all product types except land and ground-up construction.

We have unconstrained flexibility to creatively structure customized loans from $40MM to $500MM+.

WE ARE FLEXIBLE AND FAST

We commit and close quickly, and adjust proceeds to reflect the real value of the underlying property, in all real estate asset classes. Our balance sheet enables us to make loans with terms as short as 3 years to longer than 10 years on transitional and stabilized assets with both fixed and floating rates. 
We originate loans in the United States, Canada, the UK and Europe through our correspondent network and Starwood Capital Group's real estate equity professionals worldwide, with offices in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, Atlanta, Washington, C.C., Greenwich, Sao Paulo, London, Paris, Luxembourg, Mumbai and Tokyo.

 

WE ARE CAPITALIZED FOR SUCCESS

We have permanent capital dedicated to CRE debt and we provide capital across the entire capital stack. Our capital is flexible and unconstrained by CMBS/rating agency structures and criteria, permitting us to deliver intelligent, customized solutions for sound opportunities.  As the country's largest commercial mortgage REIT, measured by equity capitalization, we are well positioned to make competitively-priced loans from $10 million to $500 million+.
 

WE ARE MANAGED FOR SUCCESS

We are an actively engaged management team.  We aggressively leverage our team's experience, market knowledge and expertise in commercial real estate ownership and operations to provide uniquely tailored, competitively priced, flexible financing solutions.
