NEW YORK, Sept. 28, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Newmark Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: NMRK) ("Newmark" or "the Company") has arranged the $170 million financing of a 33-asset, 1.8 million-square-foot national self-storage portfolio on behalf of Centerbridge Partners and Merit Hill Capital. The portfolio is well-leased and located in strong primary markets and submarkets across 16 states. The properties are third-party managed by a combination of CubeSmart and Extra Space, broadly considered among the top operators in the self-storage sector.

The Newmark team that closed the debt was led by Jordan Roeschlaub and Dustin Stolly, Vice-Chairmen and Co-Heads of the Newmark Debt, Equity and Structured Finance Team, Senior Managing Director Nick Scribani, in partnership with Vice Chairman Aaron Swerdlin and Senior Managing Director Taucha Hogue of Newmark's Self-Storage Division. Bank of America provided the loan.

"Driving the success of this transaction is the strength of the sponsorship between Merit Hill's operating platform and the equity commitment provided by Centerbridge Capital Partners," said Roeschlaub.

Stolly added, "Merit Hill Capital's ability to source deals locally and bring them to institutional standards speaks to their deep knowledge of local markets and ability to continue expanding the platform."
