Southern Realty Trust Inc. (“SRT” or the “Company”), part of TCG Real Estate, today announced that it closed a senior secured revolving credit facility (“Credit Facility”), with East West Bank serving as agent and providing an initial commitment of $50 million, with the ability to expand to $200 million, subject to certain conditions and lender participation. Proceeds will support unfunded commitments under existing loans, new commercial real estate (“CRE”) loan originations aligned with SRT’s strategy, and general corporate purposes.

The three-year facility – maturing January 2028 – features favorable terms including an interest rate of SOFR plus 2.75% (with a 2.63% SOFR floor).

"Closing this credit facility with East West Bank marks a key milestone for SRT,” said Brian Sedrish, Chief Executive Officer of SRT. “With $50 million in initial funding and ability to grow to $200 million, this facility enables us to act decisively on high-quality investment opportunities, aligning with our strategy to build a resilient, high-performing portfolio that creates long-term value for our investors.”
