Worth Avenue Capital closes $410,000 commercial loan

East Haven, CT Worth Avenue Capital, LLC (WAC) closed a $410,000 commercial loan to an existing and repeat borrower who operates as a mechanical contractor in New Haven County. The loan proceeds were used to pay off an existing loan with WAC and to provide additional working capital to the borrower. The loan is secured by a blanket second mortgage on three commercial properties in both East Haven and Branford, with an underlying LTV of 50%. The loan was funded by one of WAC’s private investors.

The borrower was able to secure additional business at year end but needed to obtain vital working capital to fund its operating expenses so that it can full fill and complete the jobs for its customers. WAC was once again able to provide the bridge financing to the borrower within one week.

The exit strategy will occur within six months or less when the borrower’s A/R from these new jobs become monetized thus allowing the borrower to pay off WAC’s bridge loan.

WAC specializes in arranging debt financing for both small businesses and real estate developers/investors and also handles bank workouts for those same clients.
