Berkadia Refinances Portfolio of Florida Memory Care Communities

Berkadia’s Seniors Housing & Healthcare Group refinanced a portfolio of six small memory care communities in central Florida. When we say small, we mean it, as each property featured six units. Occupancy was a combined 99% at the time of underwriting and has consistently been fully occupied with a waiting list.   Berkadia processed the transaction on behalf of the California-based sponsor as a scattered site loan through HUD. The $5.16 million loan represented a 60% loan-to-value ratio and came with a 34-year term. It retired a short-term bridge loan that was arranged in June 2020 to retire several small individual property loans. Ownership was also able to extract... Read More »
