813 Ridge Lake Blvd.

Memphis, TN 38120

Sale Amount: $9.6 million

Sale Date: Aug. 31, 2016

Buyer: Merchants Capital Real Estate LLC

Seller: First Tennessee Bank

Details: The four-story office building on Ridge Lake Boulevard that Enoble Business Capital spent $10 million to renovate has sold in foreclosure after its owner, Troika LLC, defaulted on a $9.8 million loan through First Tennessee Bank.
The buyer, Merchants Capital Real Estate LLC, paid $9.6 million for the 55,676-square-foot Class B building, according to an Aug. 31 substitute trustee’s deed. Jay Campbell, J. Bennett Fox and Clarence A. Wilbon of Adams and Reese LLC served as substitute trustees on behalf of First Tennessee.
Troika had purchased the property from American Snuff at a 2013 auction for $776,160. It took out the $9.8 million loan through First Tennessee Bank in December 2014, with Enoble founding partner Dudley Boyd signing the loan documents as a member of Troika.
Following the $10 million renovation, Enoble moved its headquarters into the building, holding a splashy grand opening last November at which it touted amenities such as a company cafe with an executive chef and a fitness center for employees.
Enoble, which focuses on accounts receivable financing, also used the occasion to announce it was stepping up its funding efforts in the Memphis area, with a commitment to add $200 million in business funding to local companies over the next three years.
Company leaders said they considered the new headquarters an outgrowth of Enoble’s commitment to the Memphis market.
But in February, just three months after the grand opening, Enoble laid off about 15 of its roughly 75 employees. Company officials reportedly blamed the layoffs on market conditions, and said the staff cuts were needed to ensure the company’s continued financial health.
Then, in late July, most of Enoble’s assets were bought by another Memphis-based company. A statement on Enoble’s website reads: “As of July 29, 2016, Vero Business Capital has purchased the A/R factoring assets from Enoble Inc.”
Vero’s website lists 813 Ridge Lake Blvd. as its business address.
