CCB Team Helps Close Deal For Off Campus Student Housing in Tuscaloosa, Alabama

One of the things that we love most about being private direct lenders, is the variety in deal-type that clients bring to the table. This deal was a unique opportunity to secure funding for a project in a college town that is near to the hearts of many of our Commercial Capital BIDCO team members. (Roll Tide!)
Our client was looking to alleviate the student housing shortage in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, near the University of Alabama campus. CCB was able to provide $400,000 for a cash-out refinance for working capital. The funds from this deal are being used for a large-scale project that borders the subject property. This larger project is a multi-family property that will be used to house students of The University of Alabama close to the university's campus. This deal included many layers and relied heavily on the property's value. We were able to get it to the closing table in just over a month.

This was our client's first commercial lending experience and we are proud that our team was able to walk them, as well as the seller, through every step of the process.
