BWE, a national commercial and multifamily mortgage banking company, closed a $4.5 million long-term loan for Legacy at Walton Trail, a newly constructed affordable seniors housing development in Villa Rica, Georgia (Atlanta MSA). The loan includes an 18-year term with a 35-year amortization. The property is also financed with 9% Low-Income Housing Tax Credits and a loan from the Housing Authority of Villa Rica.
