Commercial Real Estate Financing
If capital is to real estate as oxygen is to life, then what we do is important. Selecting the
proper
commercial real estate financing structure is as critical to the ultimate financial
performance of a real estate asset as is the acquisition decision itself. We weigh all of our clients'
objectives for a particular asset and its expected performance to create the right combination of
debt, mezzanine or
equity financing. When you work with
Altman Warwick, you work with
commercial real estate financing professionals to expertly handle all aspects of the transaction.
From identifying the best lender, negotiating the optimal loan terms and micro managing the
entire loan process, our transaction management team is the best in the business and will insure
the smoothest and quickest execution for your transaction. We believe in addressing any
potential deal issues at the outset of the transaction, thereby mitigating lender re-trades after loan
application. Our lenders respect and appreciate our upfront approach to doing business as much
as do our clients.
Commercial Mortgage Loans
We understand financing, our clients understand leverage. Whether utilizing other people's money or expertise, our clients understand the benefits of both.. We are constantly attuned to the internal forces within our lending
institutions that create the temporary pricing disparities. Because of the breadth and quality of
our lending relationships, Altman Warwick has been consistently successful in identifying these
disparities and converting them into advantageous borrowing opportunities for our clients.

Mezzanine Financing and Equity Financing
Mezzanine financing and equity capital can represent the most critical and widely variable
components of a project's capitalization. Since construction and permanent lenders have
uniformly lowered their leverage levels for most property types in today's marketplace, there is a
growing demand for mezzanine and equity products to fill the gap between traditional leverage
levels and what is currently available in the senior debt marketplace.
Altman Warwick specializes in identifying the most compatible and accretive mezzanine and
equity capital alternatives for any real estate acquisition or recapitalization. Our extensive
knowledge of the institutional mezzanine and equity marketplace allows us to marry the optimal
structure to each client's unique requirement. With regard to equity financing, Altman Warwick
offers experienced real estate investors patient, long-term capital for a myriad of property types
including retail, multifamily, hotel, office and industrial. From straight 50-50 joint venture equity to
preferred equity financing up to 100% of total project costs, and every permutation in between,
Altman Warwick has arranged it all.
Our institutional investors offer much more than the most competitively priced equity capital. In
addition to offering very attractive promote and equity-split structures, our equity sources can add
value to you in ways most other institutional investors could never match. For example, we have
equity investors that can dramatically lower your interest rate and increase your leverage levels
on acquisition and construction loans by offering their corporate credit enhancement. For retail
projects, our investors have unparalleled relationships and market clout with national and regional
retailers which they are glad to bring to bear to help drive tenants to your project. Further, these
investors can provide construction management and operational expertise to ensure that your
project is built and operated at the most cost efficient and optimal level. Whether for ground-up
construction or re-development projects, Altman Warwick can offer an unlimited variety of equity
financing structures for projects located throughout the US, Canada, and Mexico.
We don't just arrange equity financing, we build partnerships. We are proud of the enduring
and thriving ventures that we have created between our clients and equity sources.
For any type of commercial real estate financing that you might require, we handle it all.
