Dwight Capital has expanded its services by launching Dwight Green Finance, a new lending platform aimed at financing property improvements through C-PACE (Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy).

C-PACE Benefits

C-PACE empowers property owners to secure favorable, long-term funding for energy-efficient upgrades, renewable energy installations, and water conservation projects. These improvements lower operational costs and boost property values. Notably, the C-PACE assessment is fully assumable, making property upgrades more flexible and attractive. Repayment is structured through a special tax assessment added to the property tax bill, typically offering lower rates compared to traditional financing.

Strategic Growth

Dwight Capital is well-positioned to support clients nationwide with over 150 professionals in origination, underwriting, capital markets, asset management, and servicing. Lisa Nordel, the new Managing Director and Head of C-PACE, underscores Dwight’s commitment to expanding its expertise in sustainable housing solutions.

I am thrilled to join the Dwight team and contribute to offering our clients access to a cost-effective, long-term financing solution to enhance their capital structure,” said Lisa. “As the demand for clean energy and sustainable buildings grows, C-PACE financing has been increasingly embraced by property owners across diverse asset categories. Dwight Green Finance’s C-PACE platform seamlessly complements Dwight’s current suite of financing options, including construction, bridge, and HUD financing.

Experienced Leadership

Lisa brings over 25 years of experience in real estate across multifamily, office, and retail sectors. Previously, she served as Vice President at Peachtree Group, leading loan executions and managing C-PACE transactions. Her achievements include overseeing underwriting and closing over $850 million in C-PACE financings.
