Twain Capital Partners Launches National C-PACE Financing
Twain Capital Partners, a notable player in structured finance, has officially announced the launch of its nationwide Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy (C-PACE) financing business. This new venture expands its current offerings, including land and predevelopment bridge loans, alongside USDA loans, to address the growing demand for larger C-PACE financing solutions.
The leadership team at Twain, consisting of seasoned professionals like Andy Meyer and Brennen Brown, brings invaluable expertise to the table. Collectively, they possess over a decade of experience, having successfully facilitated more than $2 billion in C-PACE financing and over $10 billion in commercial real estate debt and equity. Their previous successes in scaling C-PACE financing businesses mark them as recognized leaders within the industry today.
According to Andy Meyer, Managing Partner at Twain, the C-PACE launch is strategically designed to align with current market needs. "We provide flexible capital suitable for larger transactions integrated into complex capital structures," he explained. This adaptability is critical, considering the average size of C-PACE transactions has notably increased in recent years.
Brennen Brown, also a Managing Partner, emphasized, "We focus on delivering excellent execution in terms of origination, underwriting, and loan servicing for substantial C-PACE loans." Twain is positioning itself to handle C-PACE loans exceeding $20 million, with the capacity to fund transactions ranging between $10 million and $250 million.
In response to recent trends, the C-PACE lending market has been consolidating, with many lenders acquired by larger asset managers and funds. However, Twain's approach involves leveraging long-term relationships with insurance companies and institutional investors, retaining its independence to provide custom capital solutions that meet borrowers' specific needs.
The C-PACE platform introduced by Twain aims to offer long-term, fixed-rate financing not only for new constructions but also for renovations and recently completed commercial projects across the nation. This commitment underscores the firm’s dedication to fostering sustainable growth within the commercial real estate sector.
In addition to its focus on C-PACE financing, Twain Capital Partners will continue providing USDA loans, enhancing its service portfolio with offerings up to $25 million, as well as predevelopment bridge debt opportunities, ensuring comprehensive financial solutions for its clients.
