Greystone has been relatively quiet in the press over the last few months, but the lender was of course hard at work. Across 11 transactions (all previously unannounced since August 2015), the lender closed over $210 million in seniors housing lending transactions. The financings were for properties located across the country, ranging in size and services offered, from age-restricted housing to memory care. The loan amounts were as small as a $2 million bank loan to finance a land acquisition for seniors housing in Waldwick, New Jersey, to as large as a $46 million Freddie Mac refinance on a 209-unit independent living/assisted living/memory care community in Anaheim, California. There were two Freddie Mac refinances, two Fannie Mae refinances, three bank loans funding acquisitions, three construction bank loans and one permanent debt placement from a life insurance company.
