We have reached a milestone as a company. After almost 9 years now as a fast growing firm, we just closed the largest deal in our history. Velvaere represents the perfect project to represent this milestone, as it is a one-of-a-kind resort-based development, encapsulating the highest product and amenities that money can buy. This closing further highlights LFB Ventures as the premier capital advisory group in the housing industry nationwide. Our client team was comprised of a large single-family office, coupled with the best collection of construction and operation teams in the Utah area who specialize in high-end housing and resort-based communities. www.velvaereparkcity.com Bonfire Collective & Magleby Construction #LFBventures #LFB #parkcity #velvaere #deervalley #construction #financing #capitaladvisory #structuredfinance

Recent Closing | $5,977,013 Financing Senior Construction Loan for Oceanfront Townhome Development Volusia County, FL The LFB Ventures team was engaged by a repeat client to arrange senior construction financing for a luxury oceanfront townhome development located along Florida’s east coast. The project features upscale coastal residences with modern architecture, premium finishes, and direct access to the beach—offering a rare combination of privacy and proximity to the shoreline. The primary objective of this assignment was to structure a cash-neutral transaction, as the sponsor sought to avoid contributing any additional equity into the deal. LFB successfully arranged a financing solution with a lender willing to recognize the land value as equity, enabling the sponsor to move forward with construction without injecting new capital. From a leverage standpoint, LFB sourced senior debt totaling $5,977,013, representing 75% LTC. The financing is non-recourse and provides sufficient term for full construction and subsequent unit sales. LFB is actively underwriting additional development and construction opportunities with this client as part of an ongoing relationship. #LFB #LFBventures #debt #equity #capital #homebuilding #land #BTR #multifamily #florida #capitaladvisors #structurefinance
