SUMMIT, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Toorak Capital Partners (“Toorak”), a leading correspondent real estate loan investment platform, today announced the successful pricing of a $400 million securitization of residential bridge loans, the largest ever issuance in the asset class.
Toorak’s securitization, Toorak Mortgage Trust 2020-1, is the fourth residential bridge loan securitization issued by the company. The transaction brings Toorak’s cumulative securitization volume to $1.25 billion. Each of Toorak’s securitizations represented the largest transaction size for the asset class at the time of issuance.
Toorak’s securitization drew investor orders significantly in excess of the quantity of notes offered, and the offering was upsized by 33 percent during the marketing period.
“Our success in this market is a direct result of our commitment to maintaining the highest credit standards. We appreciate the support of our investors which enabled us to upsize the offering, especially during a period of high volatility in the financial markets,” said John Beacham, Chief Executive Officer of Toorak.
The transaction features a two-year revolving period, during which time loan payoffs can be reinvested in new loans.
