Otterbein Senior Life Affiliates with Michigan CCRC
A CCRC in Jackson, Michigan, is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Otterbein Senior Life. The campus features 318 independent living, assisted living and skilled nursing units/beds on 22 acres.

Lument Closes Freddie Mac Refinance
Lument closed a $26.8 million Freddie Mac refinance for Treeo South Ogden, a 143-unit independent living community in Ogden, Utah, approximately 30 miles north of Salt Lake City. Tyler Armstrong, Chris Cain and Taylor Russ, all managing directors with Lument, led the transaction. Treeo South Ogden was purpose-built in 2015, and has been owned and operated by Seattle-based Leisure Care. After being presented multiple options, the borrower obtained low, fixed-rate, long-term debt from Freddie Mac that funds a capex plan, extends the loan maturity and right sizes the capital stack. The loan took out bank debt and provides cash-out proceeds for future development. It has a 10-year term, five... Read More »
Berkadia Handles Detroit-Area Deal

Berkadia represented the seller, US Capital Development (which originally developed the community), and sourced the REIT buyer, which was not disclosed. Read More »

They were acquired for a combined $17 million, or $361,700 per unit, in 2018 by a fund and leased to Calson with a purchase... Read More »
