Sanz Management has nabbed $52.5 million of construction financing for its planned multifamily development in northern New Jersey, Commercial Observer has learned.

Hall Structured Finance (HSF) supplied the floating-rate loan for Sanz’s 135-unit The Braddock apartment project in North Bergen, N.J., Colliers announced Thursday. 

ColliersPeter Nicoletti, Dylan Kane and Zach Redding arranged the transaction.

Kane said that HSF starting on the development side of commercial real estate before transitioning to become a nonbank lender enabled it to provide flexible terms for the deal.

“This is someone who can seamlessly take over projects when needed,” Kane said. “That extra comfortability allows them to get more aggressive than the competition and to be a little bit more flexible on some of the more finer points in the loan docs.”

Located at 8619 Bergenline Avenue, The Braddock will consist of 135 rentals, a 152-space parking garage and more than 3,700 square feet of private outdoor space, according to Colliers. The 11-story building will also include 2,400 square feet of retail space along with resident amenities including a rooftop lounge, business center, cafe and fitness center. 

The property’s location across from a bus stop that can transport commuters to Manhattan should prove attractive to prospective tenants, Kane said. The first three floors of the complex will be designated for parking, which Kane said will enable all residents to have views of the Manhattan skyline. He added that New Jersey’s so-called “Gold Coast” — a 19-mile stretch along the west bank of the Hudson River — has experienced an 11 percent population growth over the past decade. 

“Every lender that looked at this deal really liked the location and the submarket,” Kane said. “We think that this whole strip when you look out 10 to 20 years from now is going to be filled with assets just like this, and this will be a first mover, and they’ll get to enjoy some of the first tenants and the expansion and the population growth that we’re seeing in North Bergen.” 

Officials at Sanz and HSF did not immediately return requests for comment.

Robert Khodadadian has long had a simple philosophy about selling real estate. The way he sees it, there are approximately a million buildings in the city, and the broker that gets to sell any one among the multitude that will hit the auctioning block at a given moment is, sometimes, simply the person who happens to pitch their services to the right seller at the right time.
