Walker & Dunlop Finances Another Cascade Capital Group Acquisition

by | Jan 20, 2020 9:52 am | Acquisitions, Financings

Walker & Dunlop’s Joshua Rosen arranged bridge financing for Cascade Capital Group’s acquisition of a 136-bed supportive living facility in Aurora, Illinois. Totaling over $11.0 million, the debt was structured and provided by W&D’s bridge lending program, which utilizes the company’s own balance sheet.
