Ikaria Capital Group, led by Jason Dopoulos and Ken Gould who were formerly with White Oak Healthcare Partners and Lancaster Pollard, announced its launch. Headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio, Ikaria specializes in financing skilled nursing and seniors housing communities. Ikaria brings more than 100 years of collective experience in financing, structuring, underwriting, servicing and asset-managing bridge and FHA/HUD loans.
Ikaria’s platform specializes in debt solutions, including bridges for acquisitions, recapitalizations, refinances and construction, permanent (long-term) debt structures, FHA/HUD loans and working capital lines for skilled nursing, hospitals and other healthcare providers. In addition, capital advisory services enable clients to access Ikaria’s network of debt partners for bank loans and agency financing solutions (Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac through a correspondent relationship). The Ikaria team is already processing a more than $1 billion pipeline of bridge loans through FHA/HUD.
The firm anticipates near-term announcements of strategic capital programs and added product offerings.
