Capital Markets
Lenders are active, but selective. Capital is deploying toward sponsors with clean stories, realistic underwriting, and well-prepared packages, and pausing everywhere else.
Firm News
As featured on Markets Insider: Johnson Capital enters its next phase as an independent, technology-enabled CRE debt advisory firm, pairing a legacy dating to 1987 with a modern operating model.
Execution
Term sheets come from spreadsheets. Closings come from relationships. Lenders stretch on proceeds, structure, and timing for sponsors and advisors they know and trust.
Structuring
Most capital stacks are assembled one piece at a time, under deadline pressure. The stronger approach is designing the whole stack: senior, mezzanine, equity, before the first term sheet.
Waiting for the perfect rate is a strategy for missing the window. Refinancing decisions should be driven by the asset’s trajectory, loan maturity, and lender appetite, not the news cycle.
HUD-insured loans offer some of the best terms available for multifamily and healthcare, long-term, fixed-rate, non-recourse. The trade is a process that rewards preparation and punishes improvisation.
The coupon is the most visible number in a term sheet and often the least important one. Proceeds, recourse, flexibility, and exit provisions decide what a loan actually costs.
