Fairview Celebrates $1B in Real Estate Debt Transactions

Fairview Partners Investment Management, a Seattle-based leading real estate debt fund manager, announced over $1 billion in transaction volume since the firm’s founding in 2011. This milestone followed a run of five successful loan payoffs totaling more than $30 million in proceeds to Fairview’s funds and investors during a two-week span at the end of 2023.

“Fairview’s ability to achieve profitable loan payoffs has been especially remarkable in light of recent interest rate increases,” said Nels Stemm, Fairview’s co-founder and principal. Having just completed fundraising for its most recent closed-end vehicle, Fairview Investment Fund VII, LP, Fairview remains highly active in acquiring and originating loans secured by a diverse range of assets.

Carson Rasmussen, co-founder and principal, added, “While the ‘headlines’ on the complex deals we favor can sound riskier, our team has found these opportunities yield the best risk-reward profile available in the real estate credit market—allowing for lower advance rates and negotiation of the most favorable terms and structures—for those who understand how to manage them well.”
