North Bridge ESG LLC, a provider of real estate credit solutions, has appointed Caissa Martinez as vice president, where she will be instrumental in sourcing, structuring and closing new C-PACE transactions.
Beyond deal origination, Martinez will play a critical role in structuring financing solutions that align with the needs of sponsors and lenders, the firm said. She will also focus on financial analysis, manage client relationships and serve as a strategic liaison to capital partners.
Late last year, Carlyle committed to providing up to $1 billion to facilitate the origination of C-PACE loans by North Bridge. This partnership leverages Carlyle’s strategic growth, real estate and asset-backed finance expertise and enables North Bridge to address evolving market needs on a larger scale.
“At North Bridge, we leverage agility, innovation and an entrepreneurial mindset, while leveraging the institutional strength of our platform investment and $1 billion commitment from The Carlyle Group,” said Laura Rapaport, founder and CEO of North Bridge. “Caissa’s impressive track record in real estate investment, development and construction, and her ability to lead transactions make her an incredible asset as we continue to drive impactful, sustainable projects forward.”
Previously, Martinez was associate vice president of investments for CIM Group, where she led acquisition and disposition transactions, ensuring seamless execution across multiple strategies, asset types and U.S. markets.
North Bridge provides tailored C-PACE financing solutions across all commercial real estate asset classes nationwide.
