Assignment Overview
The partners advised Ownership on the refinancing of the J.W. Marriott Las Vegas at an optimal point of liquidity in the capital markets. Having already completed a strategic rebranding and renovation program to the asset, which was purchased out of bankruptcy, and significantly improved cashflow performance, the Ownership sought to execute a market rate conduit financing. Underwriting of this financing was complicated by the high percentage of gaming income; however, a highly competitive marketing process resulted in a favorable execution for Ownership.
