“These two Class A properties are a shining example of quality sponsorship and well-run management, and we are thrilled to provide a long-term financing solution in today’s increasing rate environment,” Sacks said in a statement.

“We are excited to be working on more transactions in the Western region, where the multifamily market is showing strong signs of growth,” Bassali added. 

The two HUD-insured Section 223(f) loans carry 35-year fixed terms. The first, a $63.4 million loan, finances the 288-unit Colonnade at Sycamore Highlands, located at 5880 Fair Isle Drive. The second, a $59.6 million loan, funds the 272-unit Castlerock at Sycamore Highlands

Watermark purchased the properties, which are near the University of California, Riverdale, back in 2007 and has pumped some $2.5 million into the 31 three-story buildings. The two apartment complexes are sprawled over 30 acres and offer a wide array of amenities including swimming pools, bocce courts, business centers and fitness centers.

Watermark Properties did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
