HCP Is Making Moves
HCP, Inc. caused a stir this month with a couple of large acquisitions totaling $558 million. The industry hasn’t seen that kind of large-scale activity in some time, as many of the REITs seemed to be biding their time, at least for big acquisitions. Occupancy woes, overdevelopment and higher labor costs seemed to be some of the causes for that added caution. HCP themselves were some of the biggest sellers recently, having sold $1.5 billion in seniors housing assets over the past five quarters. But now, HCP is jumping back into the seniors housing M&A pool with a couple of acquisitions of new, high-quality assets. The properties’ ages should help assuage some of those occupancy...

In a first for the seniors housing industry, Greystone closed Freddie Mac’s first-ever lease-up loan for a client in Northern California. More common in the multifamily market, the lease-up program is for experienced clients to lock-in low interest rates earlier in the process for refinancing newly-built properties. Now, for a just-built 66-unit assisted living/memory care community in San Jose, the team of Scott Kavel, Neal Raburn and Cary Tremper of Greystone provided a $27.5 million Freddie Mac loan, with an 11-year term, 30-year amortization and a fixed interest rate.

Greystone goes to Freddie Mac
Greystone provided more than $49.4 million in Freddie Mac loans to refinance two assisted living/memory care communities in Carmichael, California and Denver, Colorado. First, Oakmont Senior Living received a $25.15 million loan, with a 10-year fixed rate and 30-year amortization, for its newly constructed 71-unit AL/MC community in Carmichael.

The Freddie Mac Capital Markets Execution loan carried a seven-year term and three years of interest-only. Scott Kavel and Cary Tremper led the way for Greystone on these transactions. Also from Greystone, Mike Garbers and Cody... Read More »Greystone and Oakmont at it again
Greystone expanded its relationship yet again with Oakmont Senior Living. Having previously provided a $150 million Freddie Mac credit revolver (including an additional $23.5 million tranche provided last month) and an $18.8 million Freddie Mac loan for Oakmont’s Fresno, California property, Greystone continued its work by closing a $58.34 million Freddie Mac refinance for Oakmont’s 163-unit independent living community in Santa Rosa, California. The financing came to $358,000 per unit. This 10-year loan was funded through Freddie Mac’s Index Lock product, which enables the borrower to lock in the existing 10-year Treasury rate prior to commitment. Greystone was able to procure a fixed... Read More »Schedule a demo
