Money360 Funds Bridge Loan for Acquisition of Illinois Retail Property

LADERA RANCH, CA--(Marketwired - October 17, 2016) - Money360, the leading commercial real estate marketplace lending platform, announced today that it has provided an $800,000 bridge loan for the acquisition of a newly-constructed, single-tenant retail building, located in Raymond, Illinois.

Faced with an impending 1031-exchange deadline, the borrower secured a loan through Money360 and was able to close on time and avoid tax penalties.

"Borrowers looking for assistance in completing 1031-exchanges need certainty of execution. Our team has extensive experience in working with borrowers to complete their transactions effectively and efficiently," said Money360 founder and CEO Evan Gentry. "We were drawn to this transaction not only because of property's condition and the favorable loan-to-value ratio, but also because we knew our team could meet the borrower's timeline needs. The retail location was recently constructed and already occupied by a national tenant, creating strong fundamentals for the transaction."

The recourse loan is fixed for two years at an interest rate of 10.00%, on an interest-only basis.
