Regions Bank Closes Ohio Bridge Loan

Regions Bank Closes Ohio Bridge Loan

by | May 28, 2019 4:24 pm | Financings

Chris Honn of Regions Bank’s Healthcare Real Estate Group worked on behalf of an Ohio-based private owner to close a $16.8 million bridge loan with a floating interest rate and two-year term. The loan is also interest-only for the entire term, until maturity, when Regions plans to provide an agency refinance. The owner repaid construction debt with the transaction, in addition to getting cash out. They opened the 103-unit assisted living/memory care community in suburban Cleveland in the fall of 2018. It is already 65% occupied, but the interest-only payments should help the owner during the remaining lease-up period. Read More »

Regions Bank Finances Ohio Assisted Living Acquisition

Regions Bank Finances Ohio Assisted Living Acquisition

by | Sep 19, 2018 7:01 am | Acquisitions, Financings

The Regions Bank Healthcare Real Estate Group arranged a $17.57 million five-year term loan on behalf of a joint venture to acquire a 100-unit assisted living/memory care community in northeast Ohio. Developed three years ago by a local family, the community was improving operationally but was still considered a value-add opportunity for the buyer, a joint venture between an operator and a private equity firm. Proceeds of the loan will also help fund upgrades to the property operations and physical plant. Regions’ maximum loan-to-value for this type of transaction is 70%, so we can estimate the purchase price to be somewhere between $235,000 per unit and $250,000 per unit.
