Sonnenblick-Eichner Company Arranges $92,000,000 of First Mortgage Financing for a Portfolio of Four Hotels Located in Texas, Virginia, Pennsylvania and New York


BEVERLY HILLS, CA--(Marketwired - January 12, 2017) - Sonnenblick-Eichner Company has arranged $92 million in first mortgage debt to refinance a portfolio of four hotels totaling 592 rooms.

The portfolio includes Hyatt House flagged properties in Falls Church, VA and King of Prussia, PA; a Hilton Garden Inn in Albany, NY; and the luxury boutique Archer Hotel in Austin, TX.

The financing consisted of four separate non-recourse, non-cross collateralized loans from three different lenders. Sonnenblick-Eichner Company was able to arrange for a money center commercial bank to provide 10-year fixed rate financing on each of the two Hyatt House properties, and LIBOR-based floating rate financing from two regional banks on the Archer and Hilton Garden Inn properties.

The portfolio is comprised of the following hotels:

  • 171-Room Archer Hotel Austin, Austin, TX
  • 148-Room Hyatt House Falls Church/Merrifield, Falls Church, VA
  • 147-Room Hyatt House Philadelphia/King of Prussia, King of Prussia, PA
  • 126-Room Hilton Garden Inn Albany/SUNY, Albany, NY

"The financings were all competitively bid," said Sonnenblick-Eichner Company, Principal Elliot Eichner. "The recently completed Archer Austin closed with only three months of operational history. The loan also provided for an earn-out allowing the borrower an opportunity to increase loan proceeds as the property ramps up."

"The various financing structures met our client's expectations in terms of locking in advantageous long-term fixed rates on two of the assets, and a flexible LIBOR-based facility on the other properties," added Patrick Brown, also a Principal of Sonnenblick-Eichner Company.
