CLEVELAND — Cleveland-based KeyBank Real Estate Capital, the commercial real estate business unit of KeyCorp (NYSE: KEY), has established a new unitranche loan program with Toledo-based Welltower Inc. The healthcare real estate fund will total $750 million in lending capacity and will provide first mortgage financing on seniors housing and skilled nursing facilities. A unitranche loan blends senior and junior debt pricing and terms into a single first lien debt facility rather than creating two classes of debt and coordinating among multiple lenders.
