Overview

Products and Services
- Senior Mortgage Loans: A primary product offering, these are first lien loans that provide borrowers with the capital needed for acquiring, refinancing, or repositioning CRE assets. This financing solution ranks highest in terms of repayment priority in the event of a borrower's default.
- Subordinate Debt and Preferred Equity Products: Crafted to fill the gap between senior debt and equity, these financial instruments offer a higher yield in exchange for taking on more risk compared to senior loans. They provide crucial leverage opportunities for property owners seeking to maximize their investment capital.
- Mezzanine Loans: Acting as a bridge between senior debt and equity, mezzanine financing offers a hybrid of debt and equity financing, secured by a pledge of the underlying equity rather than the real estate asset itself. This facilitates higher leverage for the borrower, albeit at a higher risk to the lender.
- Other CRE Investments: Besides the primary loan products, Ares Commercial Real Estate Corporation diversifies its portfolio through investments in other CRE-related assets, including commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS). These securities provide a way for the company to invest in a pool of loans, therefore spreading the risk across different assets.
