WEST PALM BEACH, Fla., July 08, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Sunrise Realty Trust, Inc. (“SUNS” or the “Company”), an institutional commercial real estate lender focused on the Southern United States, today announced that it invested $14.1 million in a senior secured mortgage loan for the refinance of Jovie Belterra (the “Project”), a 150-unit 55+ age-restricted active adult multi-family rental development in southwest Austin. An affiliated fund invested the remaining $21.1 million of the total loan amount.
Spanning over 140,000+ net rentable square feet, the Project is nestled in the Belterra Master Planned Community in Dripping Springs of Hays County in Austin’s Hill Country, one of the most sought-after and fastest-growing counties in Texas, ranking among the top counties in growth in the United States over the past decade.
The sponsor, Wilson Capital, is an Austin-based real estate developer specializing in the development of multi-family communities in Central Texas. The Project is comprised of two buildings featuring 150 apartments, along with a suite of resort-style, lifestyle focused amenities. One building has already been completed with the full Project expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2024.
“We are excited to close our third transaction into SUNS and add this multi-family development to our growing portfolio of pure play commercial real estate. Financing attractive opportunities in the Southern United States remains a key focus as we invest our capital,” said Brian Sedrish, Chief Executive Officer of the Company. He added, “The limited supply of active adult rentals in Texas positions this project to meet substantial demand which we believe will deliver a strong risk-adjusted return for our investors.”
