Venture West Funding Arranges $14.675 Million Loan on Five No. San Diego County Apartment Buildings

El Segundo, Calif.-(BUSINESS WIRE) –October 27, 2007 – Southern California-based Venture West Funding, Inc. announced it has completed the placement of a $14.675 purchase and refinance portfolio loan on five apartment buildings in North San Diego County, CA. The five Class-A apartment buildings contain 133 units total. Chris Hutchison & Maggie Vineyard of Venture West Funding arranged the financing for a private investor and property owner with a large Southern California-based portfolio lender.

According to Ms. Vineyard “We secured a five-year, fixed rate interest-only loan. This loan allowed the client to maximize his cash flow with interest-only payments at a rate under 6.0%. In addition, the minimal prepay offered him greater flexibility if he decides it is not a long-term hold.”

"Despite the general real estate credit crunch and the tightening of underwriting standards by lenders, we have relationships with numerous commercial banks and portfolio savings banks that continue to win such loans typically targeted for the life insurance companies and conduits. Venture West’s relationships with many lending institutions allows us to offer a variety of very competitive products and our team has already exceed last year’s volume in total loan originations,” concluded Hutchison.
