Insights

This $41.0 million bridge loan transaction represents a strategically significant deal for SUNS, demonstrating the company's ability to execute complex financing structures in the high-demand medical real estate sector. The deal structure shows sophisticated risk management through several key elements:

1. Pre-sales Validation: The medical office component has achieved an impressive 95% pre-sale rate (37/39 units), effectively de-risking a substantial portion of the project. The senior living tower's 22% pre-leasing with deposits, months before completion, indicates strong market validation.

2. Strategic Market Position: The property's location in a medical epicenter of Southern Florida capitalizes on the region's demographics and healthcare needs. Being the newest vintage product in an underserved market creates a significant competitive advantage.

3. Sponsor Credibility: Dornin Investment Group's track record of seven successful NPL deals with positive returns and $725 million in total NPL investments provides confidence in their operational expertise.

The property's diverse revenue streams from medical offices, senior living and retail create multiple income channels, reducing single-sector risk. The amenity-rich design and strategic location position it well for strong occupancy rates and potential premium pricing. For SUNS investors, this represents a well-structured deal with multiple layers of risk mitigation and strong potential for stable returns.

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla., Jan. 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sunrise Realty Trust, Inc. (“SUNS” or “the Company”) (Nasdaq: SUNS), an affiliate of TCG Real Estate, today announced that it has committed $30.8 million to a $41.0 million note-on-note bridge loan. This loan is for the full repayment of an existing senior mortgage on a mixed-use asset, the “Project” or “Property”, featuring senior living, medical office, and retail located in an upscale suburb of Miami, FL. The remaining $10.3 million is held by an affiliate on the TCG Real Estate platform. The sponsor, Dornin Investment Group (“DIG” or the “Sponsor”), is a skilled operator with expertise in resolving non-performing loans (“NPLs”) with seven realized NPL deals over the last 10 years, all resulting in positive returns and over $725 million in total NPL investments.

Mike Guterman, Senior Vice President at Bellwether Enterprise, represented both the buyer and seller on the Project, as well as arranged the financing. Mr. Guterman said, “The lender wanted to move the note quickly and quietly, and Dornin was my first and only call for the purchase and TCG was my first call on the financing as well due to my long relationship with both Chris Dornin and Brian Sedrish."

The Property includes a 4-story medical office building (the “MOB”) and a 10-story senior living tower (the “SL Tower”). The MOB includes 6,411 square feet of ground-floor retail and 25,244 square feet of medical office condos, of which 37 of 39 units have been pre-sold. The SL Tower includes 22,097 square feet of ground-floor/mezzanine retail, two floors of structured parking, and 108,188 square feet of senior housing spanning 163 units across seven floors.

The third-party operator for SL Tower has pre-leased and received deposits for 36 of these units (~22%), with move-ins for residents to begin in early spring 2025. On-site amenities include a 166-space garage, fitness center, pool, outdoor patio, indoor / outdoor dining, coffee shop, lounge, salon, theater, arts & crafts room and private offices. Conveniently located in a medical epicenter of Southern Florida, the Property is the newest vintage product of its category in an area with significant unmet demand for medical care housing.

“With an experienced sponsor, combined with robust pre-sales and a specialized brand-name operator post-completion, we’re thrilled with the opportunity to bring this project to fruition,” said Brian Sedrish, Chief Executive Officer of SUNS. “This investment exemplifies our ability to identify overlooked opportunities and de-risk the transaction through deep diligence and innovative deal structuring.”

“This was a complex investment that required a lot of structure with many moving parts all the way up to the closing. SUNS was fast, creative, flexible and diligent in their financing and execution. We appreciate the new relationship and look forward to many more financings with them,” said Chris Dornin, President and CEO of Dornin Investment Group.
