Love-Funding-Toms-River-NJ

TOMS RIVER, N.J. — Love Funding has closed an $8.1 million refinancing for Magnolia Gardens Assisted Living Facility, a 79-unit community in Toms River, located near the coast east of Philadelphia and south of New York City. Love Funding’s Laura Saull-Smith secured the loan through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s 232/223(a)(7) loan insurance program. This program allows for the refinancing of properties currently insured by FHA, as well as an extension of up to 12 years beyond the original mortgage term. Magnolia Gardens Assisted Living Facility was previously refinanced in 2006 under HUD’s 232/223(f) loan program. The current refinancing, which locks in a lower interest rate for a 35-year term, will generate debt service savings. Magnolia Gardens was built in 2002 and will continue under the management of ML Healthcare Associates Inc.
