We typically see Capital Funding Group in the financing side of the business, boasting a steady stream of agency and bridge loan closings of late. But CFG Capital Markets, its investment banking and securities subsidiary, has just announced they represented the seller in its disposition of two seniors housing communities operated by Oxford Senior Living. Located in Derby, Kansas (Wichita MSA), the 48-unit stand-alone memory care community was built in two phases in 2011 and 2013. The McKinney, Texas community features 73 units of assisted living and memory care, and only just opened in January 2017 at a cost of $15 million, or $205,500 per unit.

Capital Funding Locks in Acquisition Financing

We know how long skilled nursing acquisitions can take in the state of New York. That didn’t stop Maximus Healthcare LLC from acquiring Briody’s Health Care, an 82-bed skilled nursing facility in Lockport, New York (just outside of Rochester). It was first announced back in May 2015 that Maximus intended to acquire the facility, which had been owned by the Briody family for three generations. But the family’s presence at the facility will still be felt, with the existing administrator, Ann Briody Petock, electing to stay on. To finance the acquisition, Craig Casagrande of Capital Funding Group originated a $6.683 million bridge loan. Maximus also has plans to modernize the facility’s... Read More »
