As many of you may know, National Health Investors and Bickford Senior Living are in the middle of their joint venture to build 36 assisted living/memory care communities in eight states. The joint venture is mostly funded with borrowings on NHI’s unsecured bank credit facility, but KeyBank National Association recently announced that it secured $78 million in Fannie Mae financing for 13 of the joint venture’s properties, consisting of interest-only payments at 3.79% and a 10-year maturity. The proceeds of the loan will go towards reducing borrowings on NHI’s credit facility.
