Separate Buyers Complete Skilled Nursing Acquisitions

Regional Bank Funds Illinois SNF Deal
Jeremy Warren of Montgomery Intermediary Group had to utilize some creativity to close an acquisition loan for a skilled nursing facility in southern Illinois. Owned by a highly motivated seller, the 50+ year old facility features 112 beds. That seller was unable to provide official financial statements for the facility, making finding a lender and closing the financing a more difficult prospect. But Warren found a regional bank based near the facility that was willing to get involved because of the experience and regional presence of the buyer, an Illinois-based operator with a significant portfolio in the state. There was a large disparity between the appraised loan-to-value and... Read More »
60 Seconds with Swett: HUD’s Express Lane and M&A
We’re not used to sensible reforms coming out of Washington, D.C., but HUD has just come out with a new “Express Lane” for the Section 232 Residential Care Facilities program. Obviously, we don’t want any facilities or borrowers that shouldn’t receive a loan to slip through the cracks, not that you can always predict a future disaster. But so many HUD loan processes sought by repeat-borrowers are a foregone conclusion, and we think with the guardrails in place, this is a great idea. Those guardrails apply to the loan terms, the facility quality and the borrower itself. Also, all of the criteria have to be met to qualify. Some of the highlights include a maximum 70% loan-to-value, minimum... Read More »
