JW Mays ( (MAYS) ) has shared an announcement.
On March 27, 2026, J.W.M. Realty Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of J.W. Mays, Inc., entered into a $6.2 million loan agreement with Putnam County National Bank of Carmel, secured by a first mortgage on its Circleville, Ohio property and guaranteed unconditionally by J.W. Mays. The loan carries a fixed 7.00% interest rate, requires monthly payments of $48,068.53 starting May 1, 2026, matures April 1, 2031, and includes declining prepayment penalties over the first three years while allowing the lender to call the loan on demand after the term date.
The company used $3,135,704 of the proceeds on March 27, 2026 to retire an existing secured loan with the same lender and plans to allocate the remaining funds toward maintenance, repairs, and onboarding new tenants across its properties, potentially enhancing property quality and occupancy. A director of J.W. Mays, Dean L. Ryder, is affiliated with the lending bank, though the company stated the loan was made on terms generally available to other borrowers, which may help address governance and related-party concerns for investors and other stakeholders.
