How does Harborview do it?

Harborview Capital Partners has been knocking it out of the park recently, as many of you will read in the December issue of The SeniorCare Investor, which is landing on desks early next week. The firm has closed a significant amount of business since November 1, and the transactions just keep on coming. Eli Kutner originated a $30 million bridge-to-HUD refinance of a 133-bed skilled nursing facility in West Hollywood, California, which also provided net cash-out proceeds to the borrower in excess of $12 million. The loan came with a LIBOR+2.86 interest rate, two-year term with one-year extension options, 24 months of interest-only payments, and a 25-year amortization. Ephraim Kutner and... Read More »

The Art of Funding the Deal

Eli Kutner of Harborview Capital Partners has been busy of late, closing five acquisition loans that ranged from $3.19 million up to $34.89 million.

The loan featured an interest rate of LIBOR+2.85, a 25-year amortization and a three-year term.

Harborview stayed in the Northeast for the three remaining... Read More »

In three separate transactions, Harborview Capital Partners closed over $40 million in financing and showed off its variety of services in turn. Ephraim Kutner and Jonathan Kutner of the commercial real estate finance, equity and advisory firm first arranged a $10.6 million HUD loan with a 30-year term on behalf of a Chicago-based borrower to refinance a 115-bed assisted living community in St. Paul Minnesota. Harborview also closed two bank loans. One, led by Jonathan Kutner and David Chiger, involved a $16 million refinance of an Illinois skilled nursing facility. The five-year loan will pay off existing debt and provide cash-out proceeds to the Chicago-based borrower. And then Jonathan... Read More »
