Aron Will Closes Two More Financings

Aron Will Closes Two More Financings

Heading into the Thanksgiving holiday, Aron Will of CBRE certainly had a bountiful month, closing nearly $80 million in two transactions. First, working on behalf of joint venture partners Harrison Street Real Estate Capital and The Springs Living®, Mr. Will arranged a $66.4 million construction loan to fund the construction of a 216-unit senior living community in Lake Oswego, Oregon (Portland MSA).
