Commercial Observer | Peachtree Group originated the floating-rate bridge loan for 4G Ventures’ 151-key Courtyard by Marriott and 130-key Residence Inn hotels, located adjacent to each other near the corner of Frank Sinatra Drive and Cook Street in Palm Desert. The deal carries a two-year initial term with three 12-month extension options.
Peachtree CEO Greg Friedman was quoted in this recent CoStar Group article by Sean McCracken talking about the lending environment for hotels in 2024 and the opportunities for investor, operator, lenders like Peachtree Group.
"Most traditional lenders aren't lending," said Friedman. "Forty percent of the debt market is traditionally made up of regional banks, community banks, national banks, and it's been in the press that banks are under pressure. So 40% of the market is struggling, the CMBS market makes up close to 25% to 30% of lending to hotels and that market is well under pressure, as well."But he said what is left of the market is attracted to hotels due to "really good asset-level performance."
