Lancaster Pollard Lands Another HUD Loan
Lancaster Pollard didn’t rest on its laurels for long. After HUD announced that Lancaster Pollard beat out all other HUD LEAN lenders in both number of transactions (79) and loan volume (nearly $770 million), the firm closed another HUD loan on behalf of Premier Senior Living. A group of seven of its senior care facilities in the Southeast were previously financed with bonds from a national bank that were set to mature in the fall of 2017.

HJ Sims Leads San Diego CCRC Financing
A not-for-profit CCRC in the Rancho Bernardo area of San Diego, California is planning a large expansion to its skilled nursing services, to include a brand-new 72-bed, three-story skilled nursing building, plus various improvements to the assisted living and memory care communities.

Capital One In Oak Brook
A skilled nursing facility in Oak Brook, Illinois (Chicago MSA) that has undergone several changes in recent years refinanced its debt with Capital One. Built in stages from 1971 to 1989, with a therapy gym constructed in 2007, the facility is currently owned by a private owner/operator with other properties in the state. A number of semi-private units were recently converted to privates in order to attract Medicare and private pay patients, and as a result, the facility currently operates at 114 beds, despite being licensed for 156 beds.
