LOS ANGELES - Californer -- Brasa Capital Management has announced the closing of its first credit vehicle, Brasa Credit I, LP ("Brasa Credit"). Brasa Credit will now allow Brasa to provide both debt and equity on commercial real estate transactions up to $100 million on behalf of its pension fund investors.
Brasa partners with experienced developers and operators to provide between $5 million and $25 million in value-add capital for the acquisition, reposition or ground up development of commercial properties in the Western United States and Texas. The firm completed its first two transactions of the new vehicle with a $16 million preferred equity investment in a multifamily development in Denver and the acquisition of a $4 million sub-performing note secured by a mixed-use asset in Los Angeles.
The joint venture follows the successful launch of the firm's debut real estate fund at the end of 2018. Brasa Real Estate Fund, LP ("Fund") exceeded its $100 million dollar fundraising goal with a total of $120 million in capital commitments. Through the Fund, Brasa has acquired 13 assets including industrial, multifamily, life sciences and non-performing loans investing on behalf of pension funds and family offices.
