Dwight Mortgage Trust (“DMT”), the affiliate REIT of Dwight Capital, provided the $75MM construction loan. Dwight’s Tammy Tate originated this transaction for Catalyst.
“At a time when it’s extremely challenging to obtain construction financing, we were fortunate to work with a lender that understands the market and recognized the qualities that make this project so compelling,” stated Catalyst’s President Joseph Bonora.
Construction of the $100 million project has commenced and is expected to be completed by December 2025. Fort Myers-based Brooks & Freund is the General Contractor for the project, which represents the sixth multifamily community Brooks & Fruend and Catalyst have worked on together.
