About Us

LEM Mezzanine is a series of private equity funds with over $450 million of equity. Founded in 2001, the fund is an independent sister company to Lubert-Adler Real Estate Funds and is capitalized with private equity from institutional and high net worth investors.

As a direct investor providing an alternative to equity for owners of real estate, LEM offers creative structures including: mezzanine loans, preferred equity, and other forms of subordinate financing to meet the needs of each transaction. LEM prides itself on its creativity and ability to close deals quickly, and it does not depend on third party funding, outside approvals, or the vagaries of the investor marketplace. With complete control over all aspects of the transaction from sourcing to underwriting, approval, documentation, and funding, LEM is a true 'one-stop shop'.

But, we don't stop there: LEM also performs in-house asset management and servicing. Chances are that the person with whom you negotiated and closed the deal will be the same one you call for a final payoff number. In today's marketplace, it is this level of service that makes LEM a structured finance leader.
