Since 2001, Transwestern’s mezzanine funds have made 73 loans totaling approximately $790 million in commitments. Current investments are made through Transwestern Mezzanine Realty Partners II, L.L.C., a $300 million mezzanine real estate fund established in January 2004 to make mezzanine loans for office, multifamily, retail, industrial, hotel and mixed-use properties in the United States.

In 2006, Transwestern formed a new company, Transwestern Realty Finance Partners, L.L.C. (“TRF”), a subsidiary established to manage Transwestern’s high yield and fixed income real estate principal investment activities. Industry veterans, Thomas McCahill and James Mazzarelli, joined Transwestern as Managing Directors to oversee the operations of the new company. The new formation created an opportunity to control and expand a successful business line and bring debt sourcing and management entirely in-house.
