So what is PACE?

Say goodbye to old-school mezzanine debt.

PACE (Property Assessed Clean Energy) is a revolutionary way to finance your building project that cuts the need for mezzanine debt and can half your interest due from the traditional 14% to close to 7.5%. The best part? PACE doesn’t require any financial covenants. If you need to get your project built (or remodeled!), you need PACE financing, and Structured Finance Associates are the PACE experts that have the skills and experience to get your deal done.

Mezz debt is a thing of the past with new PACE financing. Change up your capital stack and reap the rewards .

A simple switch can half

your interest due.

The Wiltern Center is a historic Art Deco complex comprised of the approximate 2,300 person capacity Wiltern Theater and the 12-story Pellissier Building with ground floor retail. The property is situated on 3.05 acre site on the southeast corner of Wilshire Boulevard and Western Avenue in the Mid-Wilshire area of Los Angeles. It is across the street from the MTA Purple Line subway station.

The building was constructed in 1931, renovated in 1983, with significant upgrades and repairs completed since 2007. Electrical and other utility savings exceeded the annual payments under the PACE financing resulting in an improved property with increased NOI and no out of pocket cash flow to the owner.

Case Study:

The Missouri Theatre

The Missouri Theatre is located at 634 N. Grand Boulevard in the core of the historic theatre and arts district in Saint Louis, Missouri. The Missouri Theatre was one of the most popular theatres in St. Louis in the 1920’s. Originally constructed in November 1920 the project was completely rehabilitated turning it into a 146-room hotel with restaurants, meeting space and a 7,000 square foot rooftop lounge. In addition, the project contains ground floor retail and 21,000 square feet of office space.

SFA’s PACE+ provided approximately $10 million of PACE financing for the project. The PACE financing was non-participating, fixed-rate 20-year financing which was also non-recourse.
