3650 REIT, a national commercial real estate lender with a $13.1 billion loan portfolio for relationship borrowers, has announced the launch of its new Transitional Lending platform. The main goal of the new platform is to make transitional loans for borrowers who want to do recapitalization or certain other transactions.
With the platform launch, 3650 will now be able to provide borrowers with a complete range of financing options across the property life cycle in a market where banks and other alternative lenders are pulling back.
The Transitional Lending platform is a new addition to 3650's existing Bridge and Event Driven (BED) and Stable Cash Flow platforms. It offers flexible loan structures for cash-flowing or newly built projects with a clear path to stabilization. About $500 million in transitional loans are expected to be made through the new platform in 2023.
3650 REIT said that in today's uncertain capital markets, the company must give borrowers various loan options to cover the wide range of deals being made. This new platform is an important and exciting step forward to help the growth process.
In this real estate cycle, transitional lending fills borrowers' financing gaps. Those who take these loans will also get customized short-term financing options and business plans for each property. 3650, which has the infrastructure and staff to fund these projects, will book its first loan on the new platform in 2023.
In terms of loans originating via its BED and Stable Cash Flow platforms, 3650 had $1.66 billion by the end of 2022.
