MORRISTOWN, N.J. – JLL announces it has arranged $19.88 million in financing for the development of 34 Bank, a 126-unit, transit-oriented apartment property located in Netcong, Morris County, New Jersey.

JLL worked on behalf of the borrower, a joint venture between CrownPoint Group, The Hampshire Companies and Circle Squared Alternative Investments, to secure the 36-month, floating-rate construction loan through M&T Bank.

34 Bank will contain a total of 126 luxury units, of which 113 are market rate. Market-rate units will feature a mix of one- and two-bedroom floor plans and affordable units will feature one-, two- and three-bedroom options. The property will be situated within walking distance to the Netcong Train Station and downtown Netcong and offers accessibility to all of the region’s major roadways, including Interstate 80 and Routes 206 and 46, all of which are within 1.5 miles of the development. Due for completion in 2020, the property will provide an affordable luxury option to supplement the area’s current supply of vintage, garden-style apartments and will offer resident’s several amenities, including a great room with business stations, communal kitchen, gas fireplace, large-screen TVs, billiards room, fully equipped fitness facility and electric car charging stations. Outdoor amenities include a community gathering space with fire pit and a walking path along the Musconetcong River. The community will also feature on-site parking and optional private garages.

The JLL Capital Markets team representing the borrower was led by Senior Managing Director Jon Mikula and Managing Director Michael Klein.

“JLL is pleased to have been able to secure financing for CrownPoint Group as it continues to expand its portfolio of multifamily properties throughout the state,” Klein said.

“M&T put together very attractive terms and was able to accommodate the borrower as the deal continued to evolve throughout the closing process,” Mikula added. “It was a pleasure to work with them on this transaction.”
