Larew Doyle & Associates places two loans totaling $6.9 million on two Walgreens
Alan Doyle, principal of Larew Doyle & Associates, recently placed two loans totaling $6.9 million on two free standing Walgreens pharmacies (Bristol R.I. and Westbrook, Conn.). The loans were financed by one of LDA's insurance correspondents at a rate only slightly above 5%. The rate was fixed for a term of 20 years which was co-terminus with the remaining term of the pharmacy leases, providing interest rate protection throughout the remaining lease term.
Doyle recently received a loan commitment on a $3.1 million, 15 year fixed rate non-recourse loan on an 84-unit West Warwick apartment complex at an historical low rate of 4.07%, placed with one of its life insurance correspondents.
Other recent life insurance company loan placements included: a $3 million, 20 year fixed rate loan on a Lowe's ground lease in North Providence; a $2.25 million, 15 year fixed rate loan on a 55,000 s/f anchored retail center in West Warwick; and a $12.4 million 10 year fixed rate loan on an 80,000 s/f multi-tenant office building in Brooklyn, N.Y.
Between closed and committed loans, LDA's Providence, mid-town Manhattan and Syracuse offices placed over $100 million in new loan originations during 2011.
Providence, RI Shawmut Design and Construction celebrated the ceremonial groundbreaking for the 195 District Park Pavilion, marking the start of construction on a facility that will feature year-round dining and support space for park operations. In addition to the 3,500 s/f building, the project will include infrastructure upgrades

Long-term interest rates have fallen by 100 basis points, and the market is normalizing. In December of 2022 I wrote an article about investing in a high interest rate, high inflation market. Since then, inflation has cooled off, and the Fed has begun lowering their funds rate.
The industrial markets have never been stronger. What has happened is that the build out of Devens with new high-tech biotech manufacturing with housing to service these buildings serves as the connector required to really make the I-495 West market sizzle. Worcester has been the beneficiary
