Swiftness characterized a recent private equity investment provided by Manhattan-headquartered Emerald Creek Capital. After being contacted by a Waco, Texas, landowner near default on a mortgage, Emerald Creek Capital quickly stepped in to secure the proper funding to stabilize a 200-unit apartment complex and save the homes of more than 160 renters. Providing the owner with a $2.2 million bridge loan, Emerald Creek Capital bought the landowner enough time to pursue a more conventional Housing and Urban Development (HUD) loan. Realizing the urgency of the situation and wasting no time in raising the funds, Emerald Creek Capital supplied the loan within 30 days from receiving the call for help. Thanks to the Emerald Creek Capital loan, the landowner was able to quell a ballooning mortgage amid one of the most difficult financial periods in American history. In a time of tightening credit markets, Emerald Creek Capital has repeatedly stepped in to provide desperate landowners with an alternative to foreclosure or bankruptcy.
