Financing for the Hotel Andra in Seattle, Washington
.
 
LOS ANGELES, CA � October 9, 2006 - Sonnenblick-Eichner Company announced today that it has arranged $28,000,000 of first mortgage financing for the Hotel Andra located in downtown Seattle, Washington.  The financing is a 10-year fixed rate loan priced in the low 100 basis point range over the 10-year treasury.  The loan, provided by a Wall Street investment bank, is interest only for the first four years and then amortized over a 30-year schedule.  
 
The 10-story, 119-room hotel is located adjacent to Seattle�s trendy Belltown, which has become the center of Seattle�s residential activity, art galleries and restaurants. The hotel is within walking distance to Seattle�s financial and retail districts.  The property is a member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World and recently completed a $6 million renovation. 
 
Elliot Eichner, principal of Sonnenblick-Eichner Company commented, �This loan allowed the borrower, who recently stabilized the property after reopening in 2004, to capitalize on the current favorable market conditions to realize pent-up equity created through the successful repositioning of the property.�
 
Patrick Brown, also a principal of Sonnenblick-Eichner Company added, �The loan was competitively bid by multiple institutional lenders evidencing a capital markets trend of continued interest in non-flagged hotel properties.  The borrower ultimately chose a loan that significantly increased annual cash flow due to the interest only component of the financing.�
