Meridian Capital Group’s Impressive Spring
It’s been a sizzling Spring so far for Meridian Capital Group, which has so far closed $121.5 million in financing since mid-March. The most recent financings were arranged by the trio of Ari Adlerstein, Ari Dobkin and Josh Simpson on behalf of eight skilled nursing facilities in Florida, New Jersey, Connecticut and Maryland. The largest featured both a $42.4 million acquisition financing and a line of credit for a 230-bed facility in Miami Beach.

Affordable Housing Complex To Get A Make-Over
Cambridge Realty Capital left its comfort zone of financing skilled nursing facilities, arranging a $32.7 million HUD-insured loan that was funded by tax-exempt bonds, with owner’s equity facilitated by low-income housing tax credits. The combination refinanced a 211-unit affordable elderly housing complex in Baltimore, Maryland. The extra funds are to be used to modernize the 40-year old physical plant. We suspect there are many more of these types of buildings that need updating, in addition to more of these buildings in general to help low-income elderly as they age. Read More »

Bank Leumi Finances In Florida
Bank Leumi provided a couple of Florida financings for owners of assisted living communities. First was a five-year $9.3 million acquisition loan provided to a South Florida-based owner/operator, Priority Life Care, to purchase two senior living properties in western Broward County.

HHC Finance’s Capital Advisory Group Hits $1 Billion
Housing and Healthcare Finance’s (HHC Finance) Capital Advisory Group just crossed the $1 billion mark in loans closed since its inception a little over two years ago. Pushing the group over the edge were a couple of bridge loans arranged by Isaac Haas and Neil Gamss. The pair first structured a $12.2 million loan for two assisted living communities in Michigan, and then arranged a $6.0 million loan for a skilled nursing facility in Kentucky. The financings came with relatively low leverages and were arranged on behalf of a couple of experienced borrowers. Read More »Schedule a demo
