Live Oak Bank closed a $16.3 million A/B unitranche loan for an owner/operator of skilled nursing facilities in Utah. Berkadia Commercial Mortgage’s Seniors Housing & Healthcare Group assisted in the process, too. The financing provided bridge-to-HUD debt for a 38-bed transitional care/skilled nursing facility that opened in 2019 and provides short-term rehabilitation services.
The loan announcement comes after Live Oak Bank closed a $13 million loan to refinance a 94-unit assisted living/memory care community in Lawrenceville, Georgia. That property also opened in 2019 and was leasing up when the pandemic began. So, the loan allows for additional time to fill the community before a permanent refinance.
