The financing will be used by the sponsor to begin the execution of a value-add business plan for the asset. This transaction was negotiated by Meridian Capital Group Associate, Marko Kazanjian, who is based in the Company's New York City headquarters. The mixed-use property, located at 534 Flatbush Avenue, totals five residential units and 6,200 s/f of ground-level retail space.

"Additionally the transaction benefitted from Avant's ability to understand and underwrite the potential of this neighborhood and its significant upside," he added.
