Deal Summary
Myers Capital Hawaii—a residential and commercial mortgage banking company and direct private lender—partnered with its affiliate, Koa Mortgage Fund, to fund a $1,136,000 first-lien cash-out bridge loan with a construction holdback for a mixed-use repositioning project in Newport News.
The borrower needed renovation capital but was constrained by liquidity and leverage on the subject property alone. We cross-collateralized a free-and-clear condo to increase proceeds while maintaining conservative exposure, and financed 100% of the $469,150 construction budget, with funds held back and disbursed as work progressed.
With conservative leverage at stabilization supported by multiple collateral sources, the structure delivered strong downside protection while meeting the borrower’s capital needs. The cash-out provided required liquidity, and upon completion, the borrower plans to lease the property for commercial and event-based uses, supporting stabilized cash flow and a future takeout or sale.
Funded in February 2026, the 12-month loan carries a 15% interest rate with 12 months of guaranteed interest.
