Breathing Room Gets Bigger for Sonida Senior Living
Three months ago, Sonida Senior Living announced a comprehensive loan forbearance agreement with Fannie Mae covering 37 mortgaged communities. Part two occurred last week, which was the signing of loan modifications for these loans. It appears that the terms from three months ago remained in place. All maturities under the 37 loans have been extended to December 2026 or later.

60 Seconds with Swett: 2023 Deal Volume at 2019 Levels
Dealmakers have a lot to be frustrated with in the M&A market right now, with valuations low, deal processes taking longer than ever, scarcity in the debt markets and other headwinds making their impact.
