A Fort Worth office for DFW borrowers
The firm's Texas office is at 1300 Summit Ave, Suite 520, Fort Worth, TX 76102, with headquarters in Westlake Village, California. From there Capital Partners arranges senior debt from banks, credit unions, life companies, CMBS lenders, debt funds, and private lenders, along with mezzanine, preferred equity, and joint-venture equity for Dallas, Tarrant, Collin, Denton, and Ellis County deals.
The firm's published DFW closing is a $1.011M fixed-rate acquisition loan on a single-tenant QSR in Midlothian. The rest of this page covers how DFW lenders look at each property type, which is what determines where a request should go.
Industrial: supply, clear height, and tenant credit
DFW is one of the largest distribution markets in the country, and developers have delivered large volumes of spec big-box space around Alliance, the DFW Airport area, and south Dallas along the I-20 and I-45 corridors. Lenders track new deliveries submarket by submarket, and a spec building in a corridor with a deep construction pipeline gets tighter proceeds and more leasing reserve than the same building where supply is thin.
On existing buildings, lenders weigh clear height, truck court depth, trailer parking, and the cost of re-leasing if the tenant leaves. Shallow-bay and small-bay infill closer to the urban core draws a different lender group, often local banks that like granular rent rolls. See industrial construction loans and industrial bridge loans.
Multifamily: concessions, taxes, and maturing bridge debt
DFW added a large wave of new apartments, and lease-up competition shows up as concessions. Lenders underwrite effective rent after free rent, and they check whether nearby deliveries are still leasing. For older Class B and C properties, the pressure points are rising insurance, property taxes reset by the Dallas Central Appraisal District or Tarrant Appraisal District, and deferred maintenance.
Many owners who bought with floating-rate bridge debt face maturities where the property no longer sizes to the old loan balance. Refinancing those deals often means pairing a smaller senior loan with mezzanine or preferred equity, or a recapitalization that brings in new equity.
Retail, net lease, and pad sites on growth corridors
Population growth north toward Frisco, Prosper, and Celina and south toward Midlothian and Waxahachie keeps QSR, convenience, and service retail pads in demand. Lenders on single-tenant deals weigh the operator behind the lease, remaining term, rent against store sales when disclosed, and whether the land and building would re-lease at the same rent.
Kevin Heisser's development background includes build-to-suit work for 7-Eleven, Circle K, Taco Bell, and Chick-fil-A across the country, the same kind of pad product built along DFW arterials. For more, see NNN acquisition financing and build to suit financing.
Build-to-rent, land, and office
Build-to-rent communities and land development in the outer counties are financed against lot costs, horizontal infrastructure, and the absorption of nearby communities. Many of these projects sit in municipal utility districts or public improvement districts, and lenders review the district assessments a future resident or buyer will carry.
Lenders are most selective on DFW office. Newer buildings in Uptown, Legacy, and other preferred districts still attract debt, while older suburban office with near-term rollover usually needs bridge capital and a funded leasing budget.
Hail, appraisals, and what to send
North Texas sits in one of the most active hail regions in the country, so lenders ask for roof age and condition, any open insurance claims, and a current quote with the wind and hail deductible spelled out. Because Texas does not require sale prices to be disclosed, DFW appraisals lean on broker and data-provider comparables, and sponsors who supply their own documented trades help the value conclusion.
Send the rent roll or lease, trailing operating statements, the appraisal district account and your expected post-closing assessment, the insurance quote, and your target proceeds. Check pricing against income in the cap rate calculator, then submit your deal for a principal to review.

Common questions
Who is a commercial mortgage broker in Dallas Fort Worth?
Capital Partners is a commercial mortgage broker with an office at 1300 Summit Ave, Suite 520 in Fort Worth. It arranges commercial real estate debt and equity from $1M to $100M across DFW and nationwide, and a principal reviews every request.
What has Capital Partners financed in DFW?
The firm's published DFW closing is a $1.011M fixed-rate acquisition loan on a single-tenant QSR in Midlothian. It arranges financing for industrial, multifamily, retail, net lease, build-to-rent, and office property across the metro.
Why are DFW lenders cautious on spec industrial?
Heavy spec construction in several corridors means new buildings compete for the same tenants. Lenders respond with lower proceeds, leasing reserves, or a requirement for pre-leasing in submarkets with a deep pipeline.
How do DFW lenders handle hail risk?
They review roof age and condition, prior claims, and the wind and hail deductible on the insurance quote. A high deductible or an aging roof can lead to a required reserve or a roof replacement budget.
Can I refinance a DFW apartment bridge loan that no longer sizes?
Often, by combining a smaller senior loan with mezzanine debt, preferred equity, or new joint-venture equity. A principal will size the senior loan on current effective rents and tell you how large the gap is before lenders see the deal.
