How Duane Can Support Investment Real Estate Groups

In addition to supporting industrial customers, Duane also supports the needs of investment real estate groups in Houston. Duane works directly with groups of investors that are seeking commercial real estate loans for projects that include:

• C-Stores
• Washaterias
• Car washes
• Strip centers
• Other multi-use property locations

Duane understands the needs of investors with multiple properties in their portfolios and are seeking financing to support the acquisition and development of new properties.

We will work with multiple guarantors from the investment group to support the loan application. Duane is readily available to help the group identify which individuals should be the guarantors on each loan.

For example, an investment group may want to select five guarantors to support the loan, dividing up liability for the total debt to 20% for each guarantor. Duane will review each guarantor’s credit history and current asset portfolio to help assemble the best possible roster.

Duane’s collaborative approach will strengthen the loan application for the current deal and potentially maximizing each guarantor’s investment portfolio.
