WASHINGTON, D.C. – September 13, 2018 – Holliday Fenoglio Fowler, L.P. (HFF) announces $12.8 million in acquisition financing for Columbus Park Apartments, a seven-story, 37-unit boutique apartment property in Hoboken, New Jersey.

The HFF team worked exclusively on behalf of the borrower, Spirit Bascom Ventures, to arrange the three-year, floating-rate loan with two one-year extension options.  Details of the sale of the property, which HFF’s investment advisory team marketed to Spirit Bascom, were released in a separate announcement.

“This transaction was a true team effort on both the sales and debt side for HFF, and it was a privilege to assist in the capitalization of this acquisition for Spirit,” Leachman added.  “The broad marketing process yielded extremely competitive debt terms offering the borrower flexibility to execute on their value-add strategy.”
