The HASRE Solution

At the Tommie Hotel, Hollywood’s core is an earthquake-resistant foundation and framing design, with a multitude of other sustainable features that qualified the project for commercial PACE funding. Hannon Armstrong Sustainable Real Estate provided $12 million in proceeds, structured as a fully amortizing 30-year term at a fixed interest rate note. The PACE proceeds are entirely non-recourse to the Sponsor and prepayable.

PACE proceeds supplemented a capital stack that included EB-5 funding, a senior construction loan, and an equity structure typical for new development. The PACE proceeds removed interest rate and term risk for more than 20% of the project’s $60 million capital stack and offered maximum flexibility and highly competitive economics.
