After expanding its Chico, California senior living community a couple of years ago, Westmont Living refinanced the new development with a Freddie Mac loan arranged by Andrew Behrens, Aron Will, Austin Sacco and Adam Mincberg of CBRE.

Since Westmont took over operations in early 2006, the property has experienced consistently strong occupancy above 90%. In 2016, CBRE had arranged a $32.3 million Fannie Mae loan, with a 10-year, fixed-rate term... Read More »

It clearly worked, as occupancy stands at 92% for the property. Westmont received a 10-year, fixed-rate loan with 60 months of interest only payments. Then, to Cincinnati, Ohio, where Mr. Will arranged acquisition financing (again through... Read More »
