"Given the unique institutional quality of this oceanfront property, we were able to orchestrate a competitive sale process resulting in a transaction that had minimal contingencies and a timely closing. Recognizing that we had financed the resort three times previously for the Seller, the Buyer engaged us to finance their acquisition and renovation of the property," said Elliot Eichner, a Principal and Co-Founder of Sonnenblick-Eichner Company.

"Adding to the wide appeal of this resort is the fact that there are tremendous barriers to entry in the Cannon Beach market and that the resort has always experienced consistent sustainable income," added Patrick Brown, also a Principal of Sonnenblick-Eichner Company.
