Benmark Capital Provides $38M Loan for Refinancing of Workforce Housing Portfolio in Paterson, New Jersey
Why this matters
Capital markets activity continues to be defined by the rotation from bank balance sheets to non-bank lenders. Private credit funds have raised record dry powder; banks have tightened CRE underwriting standards for the sixth consecutive quarter. The result is a market where well-sponsored deals clear, and marginal credit pays a meaningful spread to do so. Miami continues to absorb foreign capital and high-net-worth domestic migration. Brickell and Edgewater multifamily cap rates have led the recent compression, and hospitality continues to clear at premium basis on the back of constrained supply. For LPs, the allocation conversation has shifted decisively toward real estate debt, with equity allocations being deployed more selectively into operator-led platforms.
