Lancaster Pollard Refinances $13.3M Loan for Seniors Community in California

by Nellie Day November 16, 2015

MADERA, CALIF. — Lancaster Pollard has arranged the refinancing of an $11.3 million bridge loan into a $13.3 million, non-recourse FHA permanent loan for Cedar Creek Senior Living, a 112-unit independent living, assisted living and memory care community in Madera, a small town between San Francisco and Los Angeles. Woodset Partners LLC owns the property, which Integral Senior Living operates. The property opened in 2005 and in 2010 was the winner of the Assisted Living Federation of America’s (ALFA) Best of the Best Award. Lancaster originally arranged the bridge loan in 2013 to ensure Woodset retained ownership of the community. The intent was to refinance the loan into permanent financing through FHA. The new loan structure removed many covenants, paid off the $11.3 million bridge loan and $900,000 in mezzanine debt, and provides debt service savings. In addition, the financing funds repairs to the property and a $445,000 deposit to the replacement reserve account. Jason Dopoulos led the transaction for Lancaster Pollard.

Apartment Supply in Richmond’S CBD Attracts Young, Economically Powerful Residents

by John Nelson November 16, 2015

Richmond has become a multifamily safe haven with unemployment rates below the national average and the second-best annual rental returns in the nation at 20.42 percent. Richmond’s high annual returns are due in large part to its population. The city has become a mecca for young adults as 32.2 percent of the population is in its 20s and 30s — well above the national average of 22 percent. This population’s drive for an urban, walkable lifestyle is generating a great deal of development in the CBD, as well as the Manchester submarket where Virginia Commonwealth University’s (VCU) Institute for Contemporary Art is located. VCU’s art institute is the No. 1 art and design school in the country, and continues to draw in Millennials looking to take advantage of the open and historic downtown district surrounding the James River. Richmond’s flourishing, younger population is demanding adaptive re-use and new development and developers in Richmond are answering the call. Areas such as Scott’s Addition, Shockoe Bottom and Manchester have all seen new mid and high-rise developments in recent months that are attracting a plethora of new tenants. Highlights of Richmond’s apartment market include: • 1,000 units are currently under construction with an …
