EL SEGUNDO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Venture West Funding, Inc., a mortgage company headquartered in El Segundo, CA, announced it has arranged a $24.70 million loan for the refinance of Ventura Townehouse in Ventura, CA.

Jean-Marc Herrouin of Venture West Funding arranged the financing through Walker & Dunlop. The non-recourse 10-year fixed rate loan includes two years interest only.
