Advanced Flower Capital Announces the First Closing of its Cannabis Mortgage Real-Estate Investment Trust

Advanced Flower Capital | August 18, 2020

AFC Gamma Inc., a commercial-mortgage real-estate investment trust ("REIT"), announced today that it has completed a first close of its $200 million investment vehicle, having raised approximately $80 million of equity from over 20 large family offices.  Additionally, AFC Gamma has a credit line of up to $40 million, providing the REIT with approximately $120 million of capacity to lend to cannabis operators. With companies in the industry continuing to face challenges accessing capital, AFC Gamma was founded to fill a void in the market by providing funding that these companies need to expand and operate their businesses.  The company has already provided debt financing for five companies, including dispensaries, cultivators, processors, and combined operations. To date, AFC Gamma has funded about $50 million in six transactions across five borrowers and has committed approximately an additional $30 million, to its existing borrowers and to two new loan originations closing shortly.

Dalfen Industrial Acquires Industrial Property in Winston Salem

Dalfen Industrial | December 13, 2021

Dalfen Industrial announced the acquisition of a 304,200 square foot industrial property in Winston Salem, NC. Built in 2006, Union Cross Distribution Center has features sought after by modern e-commerce tenants, including being strategically located one mile off of I-74 with convenient access to I-40 and I-85. This location provides an excellent last mile distribution opportunity to reach Winston Salem, Greensboro, and High Point's 1.7 million population base. The Piedmont Triad's industrial market continues to be very tight with limited available inventory, coupled with high tenant demand and absorption from last mile tenants. Located in the Union Cross submarket, this area provides a distinct advantage with accessibility, and a high-quality tenant base with institutional ownership. The building is 100% occupied by one tenant who is currently paying below market rent, providing a significant upside during renewal as well as during exit. Other tenants in the area include Fedex, Amazon, Caterpillar, Proctor & Gamble, and PepsiCo. "Sourced off-market and below replacement cost, Union Crossing Distribution Center is a great addition to our North Carolina portfolio. The vacancy rate in this market is a tight 2.3% due to continued and strong tenant demand which is expected to continue." -Kevin Caille, Market Officer at Dalfen Industrial "The demand for industrial properties in North Carolina continues to outpace supply.
