EL PASO, Texas—GECU said it has provided commercial financing for a new 276-unit apartment complex nearing completion in El Paso, with the credit union describing the deal as one of its most significant commercial lending projects to date.

Desert Commons West, located at 208 Isela Rubalcava Blvd. on El Paso’s West Side, will offer 276 apartments along with a variety of amenities. GECU said the financing is part of its effort to expand housing opportunities in the communities it serves.

“We are proud to support the DCW development and help elevate the El Paso community,” said Chris Tompkins, senior vice president and chief commercial services officer at GECU. “Through commercial financing initiatives like this, we’re reaffirming our commitment to expanding housing opportunities in the communities we serve.”

Developer Jordan Furman said the project began with a goal of providing high-quality housing on El Paso’s West Side and credited GECU and his development partners with helping bring the project to fruition. “None of this would have been possible without GECU’s support and financing,” Furman said.
