In October, the firm arranged $29.2 million of interim first mortgage financing for Provenance Hotel to refinance the Old No. 77 Hotel &amp; Chandlery, a 167-key hotel in New Orleans.

The firm recently closed a $430 million, 10-year, fixed-rate loan from an insurance company for the owner of the Hyatt Regency Seattle, just two months after the 1,260-key hotel opened. Moyer said it was unusual for a borrower to get a 10-year loan based on no operating history, but it provides a way for the borrower to take the financing risk off the table in a market where a wave of hotels is coming online. Owners of three other Seattle-area Hyatt Regencies have also refinanced their hotels in the last 12 months, Moyer said.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mydigitalpublication.com\/publication\/?i=592505&amp;ver=html5\"><em>Read the June 2019 issue&nbsp;of CPE.<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With lenders in the market in force, refinancing opportunities for CRE investors abound at aggressive pricing and attractive terms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1068,"featured_media":1004293265,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1521,21825,45527],"tags":[32799,32796,34040,35199,33277],"class_list":["post-1004325839","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-digital","category-finance","category-keyword-optimized","tag-cushman-wakefield","tag-jll","tag-mortgage-bankers-association","tag-thorofare-capital","tag-wells-fargo"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.0 (Yoast SEO v28.0) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Refinancing Opportunities for CRE Investors - Commercial Property Executive<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/refinancing-opportunities-for-cre-investors\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Refinancing Opportunities for CRE Investors\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"With lenders in the market in force, refinancing opportunities for CRE investors abound at aggressive pricing and attractive terms.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/refinancing-opportunities-for-cre-investors\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Commercial Property Executive\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/CPExecutive\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2019-05-30T08:07:04+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2019-06-11T14:01:09+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2019\/01\/money.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"800\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"620\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Gail Kalinoski\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@cpexecutive\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@cpexecutive\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.commercialsearch.com\\\/news\\\/refinancing-opportunities-for-cre-investors\\\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.commercialsearch.com\\\/news\\\/refinancing-opportunities-for-cre-investors\\\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Gail Kalinoski\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.commercialsearch.com\\\/news\\\/#\\\/schema\\\/person\\\/fc5b5df1393e5023d2417bd48c2fda57\"},\"headline\":\"Refinancing Opportunities for CRE Investors\",\"datePublished\":\"2019-05-30T08:07:04+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2019-06-11T14:01:09+00:00\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.commercialsearch.com\\\/news\\\/refinancing-opportunities-for-cre-investors\\\/\"},\"wordCount\":1849,\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.commercialsearch.com\\\/news\\\/refinancing-opportunities-for-cre-investors\\\/#primaryimage\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.commercialsearch.com\\\/news\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/sites\\\/46\\\/2019\\\/01\\\/money.jpg\",\"keywords\":[\"Cushman &amp;
