MIAMI BEACH, FL - South Florida developer Shoma Group announced today that they have closed on a $17.6 million construction loan for Ten30 South Beach. New York-based ACRES Capital Corp. served as the lender.
“We are very proud to secure construction financing with ACRES Capital for Ten30 South Beach as we step closer to delivering this compelling project to Miami Beach,” said Masoud Shojaee, CEO of Shoma Group. “Especially in today’s current climate, this closing is an endorsement of the market appeal of Ten30 as we continue our forward momentum bringing this attractive proposition to the Miami Beach market.”
Already under construction, Ten30 South Beach is a moderately priced, yet elegantly designed luxury retreat away from the high-rise condominium projects that have priced domestic buyers out of South Beach. Rising four stories, Ten30 South Beach will offer a curated collection of just 43 condominiums including studios, one- and two-bedroom units with expansive terraces and stylish interiors priced from the $400’s with low association fees of less than $400 per month.
“It has been a pleasure to work with Masoud and his team throughout the iterations of this project to bring this unique offering to Miami Beach,” said Michael Horowitz, of Cooper Horowitz, who arranged the financing on behalf of Shoma Group. “ACRES Capital immediately recognized the niche in the market that this product would serve and efficiently pursued and concluded the financing despite the current economic climate. It was a collaborative effort from start to finish, and we look forward to watching this project succeed.”
The significant project milestone comes on the heels of the project’s recent financing program announcement, which hopes to make luxury more attainable to domestic buyers by lowering the initial deposit requirement to 15%. Current financing programs also make it possible for qualified domestic buyers to attain up to 97% financing with the excess of the 15% deposit amount being used to cover closing costs, pre-paid items and possibly a portion of the original deposit being refunded to the buyer at closing. For domestic buyers looking to make the move to an exclusive yet sometimes elusive beach address, this could put Miami Beach living within reach.
“The Ten30 South Beach project was an attractive origination opportunity due in part to its targeted segment of the highly desirable South Beach market,” said Mark Fogel, ACRES President and Chief Executive Officer. “Its attainable price point and low common charges for each unit will accommodate a variety of residents, including local buyers looking to buy their first home, empty-nesters that are downsizing or those relocating from states with higher taxes. This wide appeal is augmented by strong, local sponsorship in Shoma Group, which will ensure that the property’s business plan is adeptly executed.”
Exclusively marketed and sold by Fortune Development Sales, Ten30 South Beach includes a myriad of upscale amenities including an expansive 6,000 square-foot rooftop deck with a rosé-colored pool, lounge, and outdoor kitchen area complete with barbecue and yoga space. Residences come with covered parking.
With state-of-the-art technology and high-end finishes, each residence will offer sophisticated technology, including the Samsung Family Hub refrigerator, which allows residents to send messages, order Uber rides, play music or see inside their fridge and browse the internet for recipes using available ingredients. Italian-designed chef caliber kitchens, Bluetooth enabled keyless entry with cameras that offer complete control through a homeowner’s mobile phone, and spacious master bedrooms with a unique open bathroom concept complete Ten30’s array of amenities that tastefully create a sense of sanctuary expressed in lyrical terms.
Ten30 offers residents the style and prestige of an exclusive address surrounded by premier shopping, dining and dazzling attractions of Miami Beach. The famed Lincoln Road shopping district is just minutes away as well as top dining experiences at Sunset Harbor. Ten30 is also conveniently located steps from Flamingo Park, where residents can enjoy several activities including a state-of-the-art aquatic center, Bark Park, baseball and football stadiums, basketball and racquetball courts, soccer and softball fields in addition to a tennis center and children’s playground.
