Tom Brady Secures Construction Loan for New Residence at Indian Creek

Seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady obtained a $35 million construction loan for his residence in Indian Creek.
In late 2020, Brady and his then-wife, supermodel Gisele Bündchen, bought the parcel at 26 Indian Creek Island Road. Brady retired from the NFL for the second and final time this year. They paid $17 million for the almost 2-acre beachfront property through an LLC run by officials of Fontainebleau Development. Developer Jeff Soffer, owner of Fontainebleau Development, and Brady are close friends.
In order to start development on the land, Fontainebleau Development submitted two notices of commencement in 2021. According to the documents, Brady intends to build a two-story residence with a security building, gym, cabana, pool, sport court, emergency generator, and more.
Brady obtained the loan from JPMorgan Chase using a covert LLC. According to the mortgage records, the initial lender was San Francisco-based First Republic Bank. First Republic was taken up by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. in May and sold to JPMorgan Chase. It was the second-largest bank failure in American history.
Brady's loan has a starting 8.25 percent yearly interest rate while it is being built. When it expires in June 2025, the borrower will probably refinance.
In South Florida, Brady and Bündchen intend to co-parent their children after announcing their divorce last year. They lived close in a four-bedroom, 4,300 square foot lakefront property at 29 Indian Creek Island Road before getting divorced. Brady then signed a lease for an opulent condo at the Surfside Fendi Château Residences project.
We're not too far from Bündchen. Records reveal that in October, she paid $11.5 million via a trust for a seaside demolition at 1400 Biscaya Drive in Surfside. Brady is building a mansion on Indian Creek across the lake from the 6,600-square-foot home, which was completed in 1981 on a 0.4-acre property.
Billionaires Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner, who spent $24 million two years ago to purchase a waterfront property on the island, billionaire Carl Icahn, billionaire hedge funder Eddie Lampert, Taubco CEO Irwin Tauber, billionaire Hotels.com co-founder Bob Diener, and billionaire IndiGo airline co-founder Rakesh Gangwal also reside in the small, gated community of Indian Creek.
