NEW YORK, June 25, 2013 /PRNewswire/ — Madison Realty Capital (MRC), an institutionally backed commercial real estate investment fund and asset manager specializing in flexible debt and equity financing solutions for middle-market transactions throughout the United States, announced the purchase of a non-performing senior note from Wells Fargo.

The note is collateralized by the Puerta Del Sol Plaza retail center, located at 22041 S. Dixie Highway in Goulds, a sub-market southwest section of Miami, Florida. The unpaid principal balance on the note was just over $5.2 million.

"This transaction supports MRC's strategy of acquiring non-performing loans and then applying our vertically integrated platform to maximize the true value of the asset. Additionally, it once again demonstrates that the relationships we have built and the certainty of execution we provide continues to generate deals for our company in markets nationwide."
