Peachtree CEO Greg Friedman was quoted in this recent CoStar Group article by Sean McCracken talking about the lending environment for hotels in 2024 and the opportunities for investor, operator, lenders like Peachtree Group.
"Most traditional lenders aren't lending," said Friedman. "Forty percent of the debt market is traditionally made up of regional banks, community banks, national banks, and it's been in the press that banks are under pressure. So 40% of the market is struggling, the CMBS market makes up close to 25% to 30% of lending to hotels and that market is well under pressure, as well."But he said what is left of the market is attracted to hotels due to "really good asset-level performance."

ATLANTA (Feb. 2, 2024) – Peachtree Group announced the company originated a $34.5 million loan for the acquisition and renovation of a 312-unit multifamily property in Gainesville, Fla., on behalf of Coastline Management Groups (Coastline), a Hollywood, Fla. based service-oriented real estate management company. The property, Pavilion on 62nd, is a 25-building, 312-unit multifamily used previously for student housing.
The Peachtree Group team originated the floating-rate bridge loan over a three-year term, representing 61% of the stabilized appraised value.
The multifamily property contains 31.74 acres and features two-, three- and four-bedroom units with onsite property management, two clubhouses, two swimming pools, workstation cubicles, a game room, a media room, rentable event room, a gym, indoor racquetball and half-court basketball, sand volleyball court, dog park and package receiving center.
Coastline will use approximately $5.0 million of the bridge loan proceeds to renovate unit interiors, convert four-bedroom units to three-bedroom units, expand the onsite amenities and complete deferred maintenance on exterior and common areas.
