AmericaVest CRE Mortgage Funding Trust

AmericaVest CRE Mortgage Funding Trust was not a traditional operating company but rather a series of trusts established as special purpose vehicles (SPVs). These trusts were created by a depositor, AmericaVest CRE Mortgage Funding LLC (a subsidiary of Arbor Realty Trust, Inc.), for the purpose of securitization. The trusts would acquire a pool of commercial real estate mortgage loans, which were then used as collateral to issue and sell Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates to investors. Each trust, such as "AmericaVest CRE Mortgage Funding Trust 2005-1," represented a distinct and separate pool of assets and series of securities. The primary function was to facilitate investment in commercial real estate debt.
