Greystone Arranges HUD Construction Debt
Working through HUD, Lisa Fischman of Greystone facilitated construction financing for an assisted living community to expand its Buffalo, New York-area campus. Originally built in 2003 with 110 beds in 84 units, the community is located on a 20-acre campus.

Featuring 146 units of independent living, assisted living and memory care, the community is located... Read More »
Lancaster Pollard Finances SNF Construction in California
Lancaster Pollard Mortgage Company, a division of ORIX Real Estate Capital, just closed on a HUD construction loan for a to-be-built skilled nursing facility in Oceanside, California. Featuring 120 beds in 62 units, the project is already underway by a partnership between RangeComm Development and Providence Group, along with the contractor ARCO Construction. It will specialize in short-term rehabilitation, and we imagine by the time the project opens, elective surgeries will be somewhat back to normal and drive much of this facility’s census. Despite delays and challenges related to COVID-19, Brett Murphy of Lancaster Pollard was able to lead the way on a $25 million HUD loan ($208,000... Read More »
