Polsinelli recently represented Peachtree Group, a direct lender providing permanent loans, bridge loans, mezzanine loans, commercial property assessed clean energy (C-PACE) financings and preferred equity investments secured by various interests in commercial real estate, in closing a $176.5 Million C-PACE financing for the Rio Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, Nev. The financing was part of an aggregate $740 Million capital stack that included also mortgage and mezzanine debt.

Additionally, this financing marks a major milestone in Polsinelli’s growing C-PACE representation, with the firm now having advised its C-PACE clients in originating more than $1 billion of C-PACE financings in participating jurisdictions across the country.
