Real estate firm Rockrose is moving forward with a $300 million commercial mortgage bond transaction, with Bloomberg reporting that a Sierra-affiliated tenant plays a role in the deal's underlying collateral structure.

Commercial mortgage-backed securities, or CMBS, are financial instruments that pool income-generating real estate loans and sell them to investors as bonds.
