3650 REIT ("3650 REIT") and The Silverfern Group ("Silverfern") today announced a collaboration for bridge and event-driven lending secured by U.S. commercial real estate ("CRE") to be marketed as the Silver3TG Investment Program ("Silver3TG").
Silver3TG's bridge and event-driven lending strategy originates U.S. CRE lending in the range of $70 million to $200+ million per transaction related to ground-up new construction, renovations, redevelopments, repositionings, and recapitalization of existing real estate properties, where traditional capital is unavailable or not capable of fully satisfying the sponsor's needs, without employing external leverage. Targeting real estate assets that are in transition and without the requirement of a syndication process, the Silver3TG CRE lending platform delivers capital for borrowers with speed and certainty.
The Silver3TG collaboration follows the August 21, 2018 announcement by US pension investor CalSTRS of an initial $200 million commitment with an accordion feature for a potential total commitment of $500 million to 3650 REIT dedicated to 3650 REIT's bridge and event-driven real estate private debt strategy.
"3650 REIT was founded on the philosophy of being a relationship lender. We are committed to providing real estate owners with more than just capital," said 3650 REIT founder Jonathan Roth. "The Silver3TG collaboration with Silverfern allows both of our firms - and our investors - to capitalize immediately on current U.S. CRE market conditions and to be prepared for any potential market correction."
"We have worked closely with the founders of 3650 REIT for several years," said Silverfern founder Reeta Holmes. "3650 REIT brings deep real estate lending expertise across the U.S. commercial real estate debt market. With six U.S. offices and a combined team of over 35 experienced real estate professionals, the Silver3TG collaboration is well positioned for meeting our borrower's private debt needs locally in the U.S."
