Cushman & Wakefield Sells For Capitol Seniors Housing

Cushman & Wakefield Sells For Capitol Seniors Housing

Three and a half years after purchasing a 97-unit assisted living/memory care community in Silicon Valley (in the town of Fremont, to be more specific), Capitol Seniors Housing is exiting the asset, making a tidy return we imagine, thanks to Rick Swartz, Jay Wagner, Aaron Rosenzweig and Alex Petrosian of Cushman & Wakefield, who represented CSH in a competitive bidding process. Since acquiring the property from Westport Capital Partners in 2014 for $23.75 million, or about $244,800 per unit, CSH and its operating partner, MBK Senior Living, worked to improve the community’s occupancy, which sat at 81% in 2014, and margin, at just 19%. CSH invested upwards of $1.0 million to improve the... Read More »
Aron Will Closes Two More Financings

Aron Will Closes Two More Financings

Heading into the Thanksgiving holiday, Aron Will of CBRE certainly had a bountiful month, closing nearly $80 million in two transactions. First, working on behalf of joint venture partners Harrison Street Real Estate Capital and The Springs Living®, Mr. Will arranged a $66.4 million construction loan to fund the construction of a 216-unit senior living community in Lake Oswego, Oregon (Portland MSA). A pair of national banks provided the floating rate loan, which came with a four-year term and 48 months of interest only. Using a conservative loan-to-value for the project, that would result in a per-unit value most likely above $400,000. The property’s location in one of the most affluent... Read More »

The sellers were affiliates of Senior Lifestyle Corporation and... Read More »

A Couple of Acquisition Loans From Harborview Capital Partners

Harborview Capital Partners has been in the business of financing large acquisitions of senior care properties lately.
