Almost five years after taking over the operations of a 92-unit senior living community in the town of The Dalles in northern Oregon, family-owned The Springs Living has become its sole owner, thanks to a $17.5 million Fannie Mae refinance arranged by Capital One’s Dague Retzlaff and Mark Bultman. Harrison Street Real Estate Capital bought the community as part of a four-property, 419-unit portfolio in November 2012 for a total of $65 million, or $155,130 per unit, and brought in The Springs to operate.

Kayne Anderson bought the portfolio in late 2013 for an estimated $400 million from GE Healthcare Finance.
