EATON, COLO. — JLL Capital Markets has arranged $5.8 million in financing for Benjamin Square, a 60-unit affordable housing community in Eaton. Benjamin Square consists of 10 buildings. The property was completed in 1979 and 1980. Apartments come in one-bedroom layouts. Amenities include a laundry room, community lounge and covered gazebo.
JLL represented the borrower, Brikwell, to secure the fixed-rate senior loan through Freddie Mac Multifamily. Brikwell was also able to renew and extend the community’s Project-Based Section 8 HAP contract prior to acquisition and loan closing, allowing the property to remain affordable for 20 years. Brock Yaffe and Tony Nargi led JLL’s Debt Advisory team. The loan will be serviced by JLL Real Estate Capital LLC, a Freddie Mac Optigo lender.
