Regions Bank announced a couple of balance sheet refinances for senior care clients. The first was closed for an 84-unit assisted living/memory care community in the suburbs of Honolulu, Hawaii, and we hope a site visit (or two) was required. Developed in 2016 by a large, senior living owner/operator based in southern California, the community was about 92% occupied at closing.   It received a $29 million non-recourse balance sheet loan, which comes out to approximately $297,000 per unit, to repay an existing HUD loan and provide low leverage loan proceeds for an adjacent land parcel.

Despite COVID-19, HUD Lean Records Strong 2020 Fiscal Year

Despite COVID-19, HUD Lean Records Strong 2020 Fiscal Year

This was not another ordinary fiscal year for HUD ended September 30, but the LEAN program still ended with nearly $4.4 billion in closings. That follows more than $3.7 billion in closings in the fiscal year 2019, which itself represented a slight increase over 2018’s volume. To reach such a high under the current circumstances, with in-person property inspections virtually impossible for months and HUD employees adjusting to working at home like so many of us, took great flexibility and a lot of hard work to get done.   Greystone was head and shoulders atop the list this fiscal year, both in terms of transactions closed and in dollar volume. The firm closed 75 loans totaling more than... Read More »
