Wellington Financial Announces Liberty Bank’s Loan 2017 Renewal to Silver Lake Resort

Wellington Financial, the exclusive Resort Finance lending correspondent for Liberty Bank, says the bank has closed another renewal as part of their long-term relationship.  Silver Lake Resort, a timeshare development company located just outside the gates of Walt Disney World in Kissimmee, Florida, received a two-year extension of their $30 million receivables loan, in addition to refinancing and extending a $4.5 million inventory loan.

“Liberty Bank started working with Silver Lake in 2009,” said Liberty Bank Vice President David Brede. “From the beginning, I knew that Liberty could continue to grow its lending relationship with them as the resort expanded over time. Initially, we helped build a receivables hypothecation and cash management facility. Most recently we’ve assisted with a construction and inventory facility to support their growth over the last eight years. We look forward to expanding on our valuable partnership with Silver Lake and its management team well into the future.”

Wellington Financial’s Executive VP Shawn Brydge says, “Silver Lake has a tenured management team that is wonderful to work with. Their consistency and passion to provide a quality product and wonderful customer experience are evident in the way they run their operation, and that carries over to the professionalism in our lending relationship.”

“Unquestionably, our lending relationship with Liberty Bank, supported by Wellington Financial, is built on a mutually beneficial partnership that gets stronger and stronger as the years pass by,” says Silver Lake Resort’s CEO, Deborah Moore. “Their creative ability to look at current and future needs and to think outside the box to remove barriers, allows us to expand in many key areas. They take pride in being part of our resort expansion and we are privileged to be part of their portfolio.”
