Charles Cotsalas, senior vice president and senior director of NorthMarq's Long Island Regional office and Ernest DesRochers, senior vice president and managing director of NorthMarq's New York City Metro Regional office, arranged first mortgage refinancing of $5 million for Bay Street Shopping Center, a 45,500 s/f neighborhood retail center located at 385-425 Bay St. Western Beef, Rite Aid and Northfield Bank are major tenants at the site. Financing was based on a 10-year term and a 25-year amortization schedule and was arranged for the borrower by NorthMarq through its relationship with correspondent life insurance company.
"The correspondent lender recognized the inherent value and quality infill retail location. They did not stumble over minutiae," said Cotsalas.
