Fannie Mae Origination in Oregon

Fannie Mae Origination in Oregon

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.

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