Newly Renovated Assisted Living Community Refinances with IDB Bank
Lisa Silvers, SVP of IDB Bank, headed to the Jacksonville, Florida suburb of Green Cove Springs to refinance a fully renovated assisted living community on behalf of its single-asset owner/operator.

Confluent Senior Living Sells, and Grows
Confluent Senior Living announced the sale of three of its senior living communities in Iowa, Oregon and New Mexico, hiring CBRE to close the deal. All three communities were, and will continue to be, operated by MorningStar Senior Living.
