“We were pleased to assist the buyer with its specific requirements for the financing,” said Groblewski. “There was a tight timeframe within which all due diligence and the closing had to occur. The transaction was complex since the hospitality operating company was also revamping its management. The lender a major New England-based financial institution with an excellent track record, offered our client the creative structure that was needed.”
