Live Oak Bank closed a $29 million loan in September for Waltham, Massachusetts-based Benchmark Senior Living to refinance a 101-unit assisted living/memory care community in Smithtown, New York. With 130 licensed beds and 88,500 square feet, the three-story community is called Whisper Woods of Smithtown. Its development cost was estimated at $25 million, or $248,000 per unit. The financing replaced the original construction debt for the community, which was built by Benchmark and was stabilized at the time of closing.
