Grant Saunders and Jay Jordan of KeyBank Real Estate Capital originated and underwrote the $62 million term loan. Read More »

The size and unit breakdowns vary by each community, though currently the company builds a prototype of approximately 78 units (90 beds) with a combination of 54 assisted... Read More »
