C-PACE Capital Solutions (Bridge + Placement Support)

Short-term, interest-only bridge capital to fund eligible improvements and position projects for C-PACE execution where available.

Energy and resiliency upgrades remain a major theme in commercial real estate capital planning. C-PACE continues to expand at the state and municipal level, with published 2024 program volume data showing broad national adoption and multi-billion-dollar cumulative market activity. 

At the same time, CRE capital stacks are increasingly shaped by refinancing pressure and lender selectivity—supporting bridge solutions that can move quickly while borrowers finalize longer-duration capital. 

EBSC Lending provides short-term capital to support eligible project costs and timing needs, while coordinating documentation and third-party requirements that C-PACE execution often requires.

Origination Points / Deposit Policy.

Origination points are 1–5 points, typically due upfront when the Commitment Letter/Fee Letter is executed (prior to closing). Points vary by loan type, size, and term and cover underwriting, processing, legal, third-party reports (appraisal/environmental), and diligence costs. Fees are non-negotiable; no escrows and not deducted from proceeds—requests to do so are automatic disqualification. If the loan does not fund, the deposit is refunded
