JLL Refinances California Active Adult Community
JLL Capital Markets closed the refinancing of a 172-unit, garden-style active adult community in Chatsworth, California. The borrower was Universe Holdings, and they received $30.315 million in fixed-rate funds through Freddie Mac for 10 years. Nantucket Creek was built just over 35 years ago and has one- and two-bedroom units ranging in size from 623 feet to 1,100 feet. The community has a clubhouse, fitness center and many other amenities, and at closing the occupancy was about 97%. That strong census may be why a 35-year-old building was able to get financing for $176,000 per unit. The JLL team representing the borrower included Charles Halladay, Jonah Aelyon and Elie...

Low-Cost Financing by Sims as Rates Rise
As interest rates are rising, one lucky borrower was able to lock in a 2.25% interest rate for 35 years. And that loan won’t be funded until construction is completed on an expansion project. This sounds better than HUD financings of a year ago. HJ Sims announced the closing of a $32.2 million bank financing for a CCRC in Pontiac, Illinois called Evenglow Lodge. The loan proceeds will be used for the construction of 76 new assisted living units, the demolition of the existing assisting living building, as well as new common space and other space used by the health center. Phase one is the assisted living project, which broke ground in 2021. Phase two will consist of the construction of 24... Read More »
