The financing involves a 636-unit mixed-use property featuring multifamily residences and 10 commercial retail suites, a transaction that underscores the firm's growing ability to structure large institutional financings as commercial real estate (CRE) lending activity accelerates nationwide. The milestone deal further highlights Mag Mile Capital's expanding presence in the U.S. commercial real estate capital markets.
The financing was completed in less than 30 days, highlighting Mag Mile Capital's ability to structure and execute large-scale commercial real estate financing transactions for institutional-quality assets across the United States.
The Fort Lauderdale mixed-use property consists of 636 luxury apartment units and 10 commercial retail suites, positioning the asset within one of the fastest-growing multifamily housing and mixed-use real estate markets in South Florida.
The loan was arranged on behalf of a New York-based debt fund that structured the financing with the project's developer and sponsor. Proceeds from the $223.5 million bridge loan were used to retire the initial construction loan, fund interest reserves, and cover closing costs, while positioning the property for continued stabilization and long-term performance.
Strategic Bridge Financing for High-Growth Market
The financing structure includes floating-rate bridge loan terms with leverage at 76% loan-to-cost and 75% loan-to-stabilized value, providing flexibility for the sponsor as leasing activity continues across the residential and commercial components of the property.
The transaction carries a three-year term with two one-year extension options, priced at a floating rate of 1-month SOFR plus 3.15%.
Mag Mile Capital Senior Vice President and Head of Originations Matt Weilgus led the transaction, working closely with the firm's institutional lending partners to secure senior financing aligned with the sponsor's capital strategy.
"Mag Mile Capital was proud to help source the senior capital provider for this project," said Matt Weilgus. "We quickly identified the right lending partner and worked closely with all parties to ensure an efficient execution within a very compressed timeline."
Largest Deal Highlights Growing CRE Capital Markets Platform
According to Mag Mile Capital Principal Rushi Shah, the transaction represents a significant milestone for the firm and reflects its expanding role within the commercial real estate financing and structured debt markets.
"This marks the largest single deal transaction in Mag Mile Capital's history," Shah said. "Our team leveraged long-standing institutional relationships to identify the right capital provider and deliver a fast execution for a high-quality asset and experienced sponsor."
Fort Lauderdale CRE Market Continues to Attract Institutional Capital
The transaction comes as South Florida's multifamily and mixed-use real estate sector continues to attract strong investor interest driven by population growth, migration trends, and expanding employment markets across the region.
Developments combining multifamily housing and retail components have become increasingly attractive investment targets as developers seek to create walkable urban environments that support residential demand and local commercial activity.
Mag Mile Capital's involvement in the transaction underscores the firm's growing reputation for structuring complex bridge loans and institutional debt solutions for large commercial real estate projects nationwide.
