Team Hachem secured $23,000,000 in proceeds for the ground up construction of an 80,000 square foot medical office property in Lone Tree, Colorado. The Property consists of a 4.8-acre site located directly across from a hospital campus (Sky Ridge Medical Center). The total project cost is a little over $31M and the loan represents 74% LTC. The Property is only 10% preleased, but it has drawn in a great deal of interest, from potential tenants. The Project is now under construction. This loan was high leverage on a spec deal; 5.25% fixed rate locked at application with 7-year term and non-recourse at stabilization.

Challenges and Solutions:

The first challenge was proving Sponsor’s rent proforma which was much higher than the comps which ranged between $21-24 NNN. With the help of the Appraiser and the Sponsor, Team Hachem was able to get the Lender comfortable with the higher proforma. This was achieved due to the Property’s proximity to the Hospital. This location offers the tenants the ability to be close to the hospital without being subject to hospital use restrictions, approval and oversight. The second challenge was starting the Project prior to the rain and snow season. The Lender was able to fund 2 weeks earlier than originally planned enabling the start of construction.
