LOS ANGELES, June 6, 2023 – JLL Capital Markets announced today that it has arranged financing for two trophy assets in Beverly Hills, California. JLL secured the senior notes with Wintrust Financial for 9440 Santa Monica Blvd., an approximately 92,000-square-foot, trophy, mixed-use building, and a newly constructed ultra-luxury apartment building located at 250 North Crescent Drive. Both assets are located in the famed Beverly Hills “Golden Triangle.”

JLL worked on behalf of Maxxam Enterprises to secure the financing with Chicago-based Wintrust Financial Corporation. The two transactions demonstrate Wintrust’s objective to expand their footprint in California, and Maxxam’s continued strategy to own, operate and develop best-in class assets across various product types.

“Fantastic to partner with the team at Maxxam on these two exceptional properties. Wintrust is excited to continue expanding on this great relationship and to grow our footprint in Southern California,” said Brenton Norman of Wintrust.

The JLL Capital Markets Debt Advisory team representing Maxxam was led by Senior Director Matt Stewart, Director Alethia Halamandaris and Analyst Jalynn Borders.

“In today’s market, debt is no longer a commodity, but rather a strategic partnership. These two transactions between Maxxam Enterprises and Wintrust represent the resilience of such a partnership in the midst of the current market volatility,” Stewart said.
