These financings demonstrate Thorofare’s ability to provide flexible capital for complex, adaptive‑reuse projects, signaling strong demand for infill industrial and conversion opportunities in Southern California’s tight market.
The commercial‑real‑estate debt market has seen a surge in floating‑rate senior mortgage structures, offering lenders and borrowers a hedge against rising interest rates while preserving cash flow flexibility. Thorofare Capital, an affiliate of the Callodine Group, has positioned itself at the forefront of this trend, leveraging its national platform to originate and close sizable loan packages across high‑growth corridors. By closing $74.23 million in Southern California this quarter, the firm not only reinforces its 2025 pipeline—already nearing $700 million—but also showcases its capacity to mobilize capital quickly for complex, sponsor‑driven transactions.
The Anaheim loan, a $52.23 million floating‑rate senior mortgage, refinances two Class B industrial buildings that together span nearly 199,000 sq ft in an infill Orange County site. This region continues to attract logistics operators seeking proximity to major freeways and ports, driving up occupancy and rent growth. Meanwhile, the $22 million loan for the Harbor Building targets an office‑to‑multifamily conversion in Los Angeles’ Mid‑Wilshire, a submarket where office vacancy pressures are prompting owners to repurpose space for housing. Adaptive‑reuse projects like this are increasingly viewed as a pragmatic response to shifting demand patterns.
From an investor perspective, Thorofare’s dual‑track approach underscores the appeal of flexible financing for both traditional industrial assets and emerging conversion opportunities. The participation of Tokyu Land US’s Structured Finance platform signals confidence from institutional capital in the stability of senior debt backed by high‑quality, location‑rich properties. As California grapples with housing shortages and supply‑chain constraints, lenders that can tailor terms to accommodate redevelopment risk are likely to capture a larger share of the market. Thorofare’s recent closings therefore serve as a bellwether for continued capital flow into infill industrial and adaptive‑reuse projects nationwide.
Thorofare Capital, a national commercial‑real‑estate debt manager, closed two floating‑rate senior mortgage loans totaling $74.23 million for an industrial refinancing in Anaheim and an office‑to‑multifamily conversion in Los Angeles. The larger $52.23 million loan finances an industrial property, while a $22 million loan funds the conversion of The Harbor Building. Tokyu Land US Corporation’s Structured Finance platform co‑participated in the financing.
