在快速变化的经济环境中，酒店开发商和贷款机构正在调整其战略，以确保酒店项目取得成功。我们与桃树集团酒店贷款执行副总裁兼CPACE主管贾里德·施洛瑟坐下来讨论了利率上升和通货膨胀压力如何影响贷款标准和财务规划。在 “活跃贷款” 小组讨论中听取贾里德的更多见解 住宿会议。
问：鉴于利率上升和通货膨胀压力，贷款机构如何调整酒店的承保标准？
杰瑞德·施洛瑟： 现在，一切都与现金流有关。除非背后有真实的故事，否则很难为任何形式的预期增长提供担保。贷款人专注于现金流，如果你能实现13％或更高的债务收益率，你就有资格获得永久债务、CMBS、人寿公司甚至银行收购。如果你没有达到这个门槛，那么你通常会进入私人信贷领域，而这正是Peachtree Group的用武之地。
问：贷款条款的当前趋势如何，例如贷款与价值（LTV）比率或利率？
JS: 差异很大，具体取决于每家贷款机构的风险门槛是多少。我看到的最大趋势是不确定利率将在多长时间内保持高位。因此，借款人正在寻求灵活性。他们愿意为收益维持时间较短或预付罚款较低的贷款支付溢价。许多人对像以前一样锁定长期固定利率债务犹豫不决。
我们提供固定利率和浮动利率贷款，但即使是固定利率产品，借款人也在努力确保尽可能多的灵活性。我们仍将达到70％的贷款比率（LTC）或LTV，有时会推高至75％或缩减规模，具体取决于我们的承保情况。相比之下，银行市场的平均水平接近50-55％，这凸显了我们的领域与传统银行之间的区别。
问：开发者应该如何调整他们在这个市场上的财务策略？
JS: 我总是说，在动荡的市场中，抢先一步。保持积极主动——无论是与我们还是与该领域的其他竞争对手进行对话，都要提前到期，尽早开始对话。目前，尽早参与是关键，因为未来非常不确定。
随着选举的临近、围绕美联储政策的波动以及是否会降息或维持高于预期的时间的问题，流动性正在波动。借款人越早进入市场寻求再融资或建筑融资，他们的一揽子计划准备得越充分，他们获得优惠条件的机会就越大。

Atlanta Business Chronicle | Atlanta Based Peachtree Group provided at $42MM loan to finance Banyan Street Capital’s acquisition of Atlanta Financial Center, the high profile office complex in the heart of Buckhead. The lender announced that it originated a floating rate first mortgage loan with a three-year initial term and 1 year extension option.
Press Release
ATLANTA (July 23, 2025) -Peachtree Group ("Peachtree) originated a $42 million first mortgage loan to finance Banyan Street Capital's ("Banyan") acquisition and repositioning of the Atlanta Financial Center ("AFC"), a914,774-square-foot Class A office campus in Buckhead, Atlanta.
“This transaction highlights how private credit continues to fuel opportunities across the commercial real estate landscape,” said Daniel Siegel, president and principal CRE of Peachtree. “In today’s volatile environment of elevated interest rates and persistent inflation, private credit remains a critical source of capital.”
Much like during the height of the debt crisis, when private credit lenders stepped in to maintain liquidity and helped stave off a broader recession, today’s private credit market continues to step up to fill the void left by traditional lenders and provide certainty for sponsors pursuing thoughtful business strategies.
“We believe the office sector is at an inflection point, much like retail when we were financing mall acquisitions. Negative sentiment is masking real opportunities. The market is bifurcated, with most vacancy tied to a number of troubled assets, and when you adjust for those, the fundamentals tell a different story. While sentiment will take time to shift, we’re ready to back smart business plans in this space,” Siegel said.
Initially acquired in 2016 by a Sumitomo Corporation affiliate for $222.5 million, AFC faced tenant departures, softening fundamentals and shifting capital priorities. The property is situated atopGA-400, offering daily visibility to approximately 420,000 commuters, and comprises three interconnected towers spanning 13.05 acres, with structured parking for 2,335 vehicles.
Banyan plans to reposition AFC, starting with the lease-up of the North Tower, supported by capital expenditure reserves and funds for tenant improvements and leasing. The sponsor will also explore larger tenant opportunities and future redevelopment options.
“This transaction reflects a careful approach to how we de-risk, by structuring a basis reset in a top submarket with an experienced sponsor and a clear repositioning plan," Siegel said.
While the broader office market faces headwinds, Buckhead remains one of Atlanta's strongest submarkets, supported by its base of financial firms, direct MARTA access, and highway connectivity, as well as high-end retail and hospitality amenities. Limited new supply, declining sublease inventory and stable tenant demand position Buckhead and AFC for recovery and growth.
The floating-rate loan carries a 36-month initial term with a 12-month extension option and is backed by completion, interest and carry guarantees from Banyan.
This transaction highlights Peachtree's ability to deliver flexible capital solutions for transitional assets in premier locations at a meaningful basis reset. Comparable transactions in the market reflect a 98percent premium to Peachtree's loan basis, underscoring the strength of the collateral and business plan.
"Borrowers are seeking flexible capital solutions that can adapt to shifting market conditions, and that's exactly what we're delivering," said Jared Schlosser, head of originations and CPACE at Peachtree. "By offering certainty of execution, we're giving sponsors the runway they need to execute thoughtful business plans."
