Holliday Fenoglio Fowler, L.P. (HFF) announced the $37.525 million in financing for Thistle Sage, a 418-unit, garden-style multi-housing community in Northglenn.
Working exclusively on behalf of Jeffrey Sanders of Boulder-based Mountain View Capital, LLC, the HFF team secured the seven-year, fixed-rate loan through Freddie Mac’s CME Program. The securitized loan will be serviced by HFF, a Freddie Mac Multifamily Approved Seller/Servicer for Conventional Loans.

Located just east of Interstate 25 at 11801 Washington Street, the property is approximately 13 miles north of the Denver CBD and near multiple retail amenities. The 9.7-acre community features two heated swimming pools, a grilling area, playground and more than 500 open parking spaces. Thistle Sage was nearly 95 percent occupied at closing.
The HFF debt placement team representing the borrower consisted of managing director Josh Simon and director Kristian Lichtenfels.
“It is always a pleasure to work with the HFF team,” Sanders said. “Their consistently flawless execution is a true asset when acquiring properties in the current competitive environment.”
HREC Arranges Sale of the Ridgway-Ouray Lodge & Suites Ouray
HREC Investment Advisors announced it has arranged the sale of the 52-guestroom Ridgway-Ouray Lodge & Suites located in Ridgway. The Buyer, Ridgway Hotel Group LLC, led by Adam Dubroff, is a Ridgway resident with extensive hotel ownership experience.
Mike Dubé, vice president in HREC Investment Advisors’ Denver office, exclusively represented the seller. The seller was the original developer of the Lodge, which was built in 1992.
Dubé stated, “it was a challenge to find the right buyer due to the very tertiary nature of the market and the fact that it was a non-branded asset, but in finding an experienced hotelier in Ridgway, the sellers were extremely pleased that their Lodge was being left in capable hands.”
Dubroff assembled a small group of investors familiar with the local real estate market and also his background in the hotel industry turning around select service and boutique hotels across the United States. According to Dubroff, “The Ridgway area is pristine and is becoming more recognized as a destination for all kinds of outdoor enthusiasts on a year-round basis. Our goal in acquiring the Ridgway Lodge and Suites is to re-position the property and make it an exceptional value compared to other lodging options for visitors to the area for years to come.”
Ridgway is located in Ouray County in southwestern Colorado, approximately 300 miles from Denver. Ridgway’s economy is largely driven by tourism benefiting from its location at the base of the San Juan Mountains. The Hotel’s strategic location at the intersection of Highway 550 and Highway 62 provides easy access to the tourist town of Ouray, roughly 10 miles south, and the popular ski town of Telluride, roughly 40 miles south. Highway 550, runs from Bernalillo, New Mexico to Montrose. It is also known as the San Juan Skyway, designated as one of only six “All American Roads” in the United States because of its spectacular views of the San Juan Mountain range.
