Collateral profile

The Marlowe is a 2006-vintage community comprising 168 units and 492 beds, with a unit mix concentrated in two- and three-bedroom floor plans averaging approximately 1,175 SF.

Transaction Overview and Capital Stack Structure

Longline’s financing is designed to support the conversion strategy—unit renovations, curb appeal improvements, and an operating transition to conventional multifamily—while maintaining flexibility to execute through defined milestones.

In addition to senior financing, Longline Financial provided participating preferred equity as part of the overall solution. This structure is intended to help complete the capital stack efficiently by reducing the sponsor’s required equity contribution, while aligning incentives across the business plan.
