Hospitality permanent loan refinance • Fixed-rate execution • Long-term stability

Hospitality permanent loan refinance overview

Hospitality permanent loan refinance structured for stabilized ownership. Cornovus Capital arranged a $2.85 million permanent mortgage refinance for a boutique hotel and restaurant property in Northport, New York. The financing was structured to transition the asset from construction-phase obligations into long-term, fixed-rate stability while improving liquidity and consolidating debt under a single execution.

Proceeds were used to refinance existing debt (including a senior mortgage and a revolving line of credit), address other legacy obligations, and provide limited cash-out proceeds to ownership. The permanent facility featured a five-year term with a 25-year amortization schedule and a conservative loan-to-value constraint designed for durable hospitality performance. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
