An affiliate of The Inland Real Estate Group of Companies has obtained financing for the acquisition of three independent, assisted living and memory care communities in the Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minn. metropolitan area. On behalf of Inland, The Waters Senior Living will continue as property manager of the communities. JLL represented Inland in the transaction.
“The challenges were primarily capital markets-driven,” Sam Dylag, director for the JLL Senior Housing Capital Markets team, told Multi-Housing News. “The lion’s share of the financing for this particular product was from local, regional, super-regional and national banks, and many of those aren’t very active right now.
“We had to go to dozens of lenders to get the client the terms they were looking for. We’re glad we could be part of the client executing on its business plan.”
