White Oak Healthcare Finance Buys $700 Million In Senior Care Loans
White Oak Healthcare Finance is aggressively growing its presence in the senior care lender market and purchased a portfolio of 12 skilled nursing and seniors housing loans from Capital One and its participant banks. Financial terms were not disclosed, but the loans totaled approximately $700 million and helped Capital One reduce its skilled nursing exposure. So, it was a win-win for both parties. Capital One also provided debt financing for White Oak to fund the transaction. This isn’t White Oak’s first big wave in the senior care lending market. Last month, the company served as administrative agent and lead lender on the funding of a $190 million senior credit facility of 17 skilled... Read More »

Blueprint and Birchwood
Birchwood Healthcare Partners is making a successful exit from their skilled nursing/assisted living facility in Huntington, West Virginia, more than doubling the facility’s value after just three years of ownership. When Birchwood originally purchased the 55-bed/unit facility from an individual owner in 2015 for $3.2 million, the facility was losing money. Originally built in 1928, the facility was totally renovated in 2009 making it one of the more modern facilities in the area. It also featured an assisted living component. Although it was 90% occupied, its operator tenant stopped paying rent and filed for bankruptcy, prompting the owner to sell. So, Birchwood brought in Providence... Read More »
