In last month’s SeniorCare Investor we mentioned that the team at Newmark Knight Frank would have approximately $1.2 billion in closings in December. They may have reached half of that in one deal.

Grandbridge Provides Permanent Refinancing

by | Mar 15, 2018 3:54 pm | Developments, Financings

Speaking of backyards, Grandbridge Real Estate Capital arranged $35 million in Freddie Mac financing for a one-year old assisted living and memory care community in Norwalk, Connecticut. The 10-year, fixed-rate loan has a 30-year amortization. The community is located a mile from our main office. The property was developed by The Shelter Group and its affiliate, Brightview Senior Living, is the manager. We know it well because we had a tour when it opened and attended the first open house. It was built on a very tight piece of land, but they were able to take advantage of the topography for some unique outdoor areas. We assume it is at or close to stabilization otherwise Freddie Mac would... Read More »
