The property was previously acquired in early 2007 for
$15.45m or $57,434 per unit with $2.29m down and $13.16m in new purchase money
debt with Nomura Capital in two notes of $11.16m and $2m, maturing March 11th,
2012. These notes were pooled into a commercial mortgage-backed security and
assigned to a Wells Fargo entity in May of 2008. At that time, the combined
note was bearing interest of 6.18% and the property had been appraised at
$17.6m for a loan to value (LTV) of 74.77%.
The first public indication of distress on the property came
in the form of a May 2011 notice of trustee sale on the combined $13.16m CMBS
debt. The property reverted to Wells Fargo as trustee for the CMBS certificate
holders on October 7th, 2011 with a $7.7m credit bid. Roughly six
months later, Gelt Inc. acquired the property from the bank for an undisclosed
amount and encumbered the property with $7m in new debt with LNR Partners. Gelt
refinanced that note with $8.824m in new debt with CBRE Capital Markets and
undertook a series of renovations to the property.
