Chicago, IL – October 12, 2022 – American Street Capital (“ASC”) has announced the funding of a $1 million bridge loan for the acquisition of a 7-unit mixed-use building in Chicago, IL.
Located in the Rogers Park neighborhood of northern Chicago, the mixed-use asset is directly next door to a CTA Brown line stop and in proximity to Lake Shore Drive. The two-story building contains 5 retail units occupied by various neighborhood merchants and two apartments.
The out of state seller required the buyer to close within 3 weeks or lose their earnest money. The first time commercial real estate buyer required closing assurance, limited pre-payment and a pre-approval from a conventional lender prior to proceeding. The first lien mortgage was provided by ASC SBL at the request loan amount, on the request closing date, and without a pre-payment penalty. This was the first of its proprietary bridge fund that launched earlier this month. ASC’s mortgage banking division successfully refinanced the loan with a commercial bank correspondent in exactly 30 days with a cash out and a 5-year term at a market competitive rate.
Both loans were originated by Igor Zhizhin, the President of ASC.
