CHARLOTTE, NC: Waterstone Defeasance recently closed a defeasance transaction for a $16 million CMBS loan, secured by a multifamily property located in Sacramento, CA.  Waterstone guided the owners through the defeasance process coinciding with the owners’ refinance of their loan.

As the defeasance consultant, Waterstone managed the activities of the numerous parties involved with the transaction in order to meet the borrower’s closing schedule. Parties associated with a defeasance transaction typically include the servicer, servicer’s counsel, borrower, borrower’s counsel, securities broker, custodian, accountant, rating agencies, and the successor borrower.

“This deal came together during the final days of 2020.  Even though it was the clients first defeasance, we were able to work quickly with them to complete it in a very expedited timeframe so that they were able to close out their refinance prior to year-end.  Their team was very hands-on and knowledgeable which made everything run smoothly.” – Addison McMillan, Director with Waterstone
