Investment Areas

Senior Debt

We provide market rate, non-bank capital for semi-stabilized, value-added and transitional real estate projects.

Preferred Equity

We provide preferred equity for both at-acquisition and post-acquisition transactions. Post-acquisition capital needs include financial restructuring, construction cost overruns, capital improvements and gap financing where there is a shortfall in a refinance. 

Situational Capital

We provide capital for property owners with special-circumstance capital needs of all kinds. Some of these circumstances include: partner buyouts, bankruptcy/DIP financing, environmental cleanup, foreclosure bailout, TI/LC capital, litigation funding and other special circumstances. We are a capital provider with a willingness to listen and customize terms and structure based on a borrower’s unique needs.

VALUE ADD

Watermarq specializes in acquiring assets that are underperforming due to undercapitalization resulting in deferred maintenance, vacancy and depressed income.

Additional services we provide

As a capital provider, Watermarq is an active buyer of secondary market real estate debt. This makes Watermarq a valuable resource for conventional bank lenders, institutional alternative debt providers and private lenders involved in the real estate industry. Watermarq’s ability to buy debt in all stages of performance (including bankruptcy) allows lenders to free up capital, time and resources. Financial partners can look to Watermarq as a reliable capital partner to acquire debt that no longer meets their portfolios needs.
