CBRE Finances Active Adult Development in Chicagoland
A new active adult development that is set to break ground just received financing courtesy of CBRE and a national bank. Aron Will, Austin Sacco and Matthew Kuronen of CBRE Senior Housing partnered with CBRE Chicago’s Debt and Structured Finance’s John Parret and Peter Marino to arrange the $43 million construction loan. The to-be-built community is located in Chicagoland and will feature around 190 units. It is considered to be “A” quality, which we imagine are easier projects for lenders to get behind right now, especially with an active developer in the space. A national bank provided the loan, which comes with a five-year term, 42 months of interest only and a floating... Read More »
People’s United Bank Refinances Two New England Communities
Bridgeport, Connecticut-based People’s United Bank announced a couple of refinances for seniors housing clients in New England, working with participating banks on both deals.

M&A in May Falls Flat
Despite the positive occupancy news coming out of seemingly every earnings announcement in May, buyers held back this month, announcing just 26 transactions. To be fair, that total beat’s February’s 25 publicly announced transactions (albeit being a 28-day month), and tied January. But it was off of March’s 29-deal tally and April, when a “whopping” 32 deals were announced. We know that plenty of both buyers and sellers are waiting for a three- to six-month period of sustained occupancy and NOI growth before either risking the purchase or getting the desired price. But with a surge of deals closed at the end of April, we also thought a certain barrier had been broken and... Read More »
Newmark Announces Closing in Kansas
The Newmark team has been quite active lately, and an early May closing recently rose to the surface. The deal included an 89-unit seniors housing community in Wichita, Kansas. Built in 1997 with 22 independent living, 51 assisted living and 16 memory care units, the community was around 80% occupied, and there was land available for expansion. It also brought in nearly $500,000 of NOI. The purchase price was not disclosed, but the buyer was a Kansas-based regional operator. The seller was also not known. We learned of some other closings from the Newmark team, which we will detail in the June issue of The SeniorCare Investor. Read More »

Senior Living Investment Brokerage Handles Active Adult Deal
Their ears must have been burning, because after we discussed the rise in M&A activity in the active adult/55+ market, Matthew Alley and Bradley Clousing of Senior Living Investment Brokerage announced the sale of an 81-unit community in Granbury, Texas. Developed in stages from 2018 to 2020 by a local mom & pop, it was already fully occupied with a wait list by the end of 2020. Talk about strong demand! It helps that the community is located near Lake Granbury and the lakefront activities there, along with many restaurants and shopping downtown. We’ve talked about the strong operating margins that active adult can offer, and indeed, this community brought in $950,000 of EBITDAR... Read More »
Carnegie Capital Closes Acquisition Financing
JD Stettin of Carnegie Capital has announced another acquisition financing, this time for two skilled nursing facilities in north central Texas. Combining for 206 licensed beds and 54,000 square feet, the facilities were built in the mid-1970s. Occupancy could be improved, but that is not surprising given the past year. A national private fund emerged as the buyer, partnering with regional and local operators to manage the facilities. They paid $8.5 million, or $41,300 per bed. Mr. Stettin secured a hybrid bank/private loan at 80% loan-to-cost (so, $6.8 million), which came with a three-year, interest-only term and a rate in the mid-4s. Read More »
CBRE Closes Large Florida Refinancing
CBRE Senior Housing’s Aron Will, Austin Sacco and Adam Mincberg closed a large refinancing for a seniors housing community still in early-stage lease up in the Miami, Florida market. The community is also large and considered to be upscale. Working with a debt fund, CBRE secured a $78 million loan, which came with a three-year term and a floating interest rate. There was also a full term of interest only. Given the property is still in lease-up, we assume that this loan took out previous construction debt, but no other details were disclosed. Read More »

Originally built in 1973, the Section 8 community consists of 121 units, split between 106 one-bedroom and 15 two-bedroom units.
