CapitalSource nets $119M from HUD mortgage deal

CHEVY CHASE, Md. — Commercial lender CapitalSource Inc. on Tuesday said it received about $119 million in cash proceeds after closing mortgages backed by the Department of Housing and Urban Development.

The lender has reduced its outstanding debt under its syndicated bank facility to $325 million.

In morning trading, CapitalSource shares added 16 cents, or 4.2 percent, to $3.93.
