by | Oct 13, 2017 7:01 am | Financings

A skilled nursing facility in Oak Brook, Illinois (Chicago MSA) that has undergone several changes in recent years refinanced its debt with Capital One.

Capital One Closes A Big One

by | Sep 15, 2017 7:03 am | Acquisitions, Financings

Capital One flexed its banking muscles when it provided just over $551 million in financing to Kayne Anderson Real Estate Advisors (KAREA) for its purchase of Sentio Healthcare Properties. Announced back in May, the high-profile acquisition included all 34 of Sentio’s seniors housing and medical office properties, and was valued around $825 million. To fund the deal, Capital One provided KAREA a $251 million bridge loan and a $300 million Freddie Mac seniors housing revolving credit facility. We imagine a lot of time was spent on this large, complex transaction. Well done. Another Capital One deal came across the wires, albeit a little smaller than the KAREA deal. Joshua Rosen originated a... Read More »
