Seven Valleys is the U.S. family office of Chinese investor Zhang Xin, and is a commercial real estate development and investment firm. The firm also has a lending platform that aims to originate $2 billion of bridge and mezzanine loans and other commercial real estate debt. According to publisher Commercial Mortgage Alert, the firm also looks to originate mezzanine loans and preferred equity with core-type returns on stabilized office and multi-family properties. Those financings, ranging from $50 million to $300 million, would bring total leverage as high as 65%. And it will write construction and pre-development loans of $50 million to $100 million for office, apartment and condominium projects at loan-to-cost ratios up to 60%. Zhang Xin and her husband and co-investor, Pan Shiyi, control SOHO China, which has developed dozens of commercial properties in China over the past two decades. Seven Valleys owns equity stakes in two New York office buildings: the GM Building, at 767 Fifth Avenue, and Park Avenue Plaza at 55 East 52nd Street. The company also invests in private equity, venture capital, fixed-income products and the energy sector.
