Marcolini-Quinn and Rothaug of NorthMarq arrange $6 million first mortgage; Cohn of Cohn Properties assists

Melissa Marcolini-Quinn, vice president, and Robert Rothaug, investment analyst, of NorthMarq's Orlando regional office, in cooperation with Marshall Cohn of Cohn Properties, arranged first mortgage refinancing of $6 million for Morton Village Plaza, a 115,976 s/f neighborhood shopping center located at 998-1064 Old Country Rd. Shop Rite, CVS and Chase Bank are major tenants at the center. Financing was based on a 10-year interest-only term and was arranged for the borrower through NorthMarq's relationship with a correspondent life insurance company. "Although the property had some rollover risk, we were able to find a suitable life company willing to offer a full-term interest only loan at a very low interest rate due to the low leverage," said Marcolini-Quinn.
