BETHESDA, Md., Jan. 16, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Walker & Dunlop, Inc. announced today that it has provided $11,028,500 in bridge financing for The Vistas Fox Valley, a 136-bed supportive living facility in Aurora, Illinois. The debt was structured and provided by Walker & Dunlop's bridge lending program, which utilizes the company's own balance sheet to offer short-term, non-recourse loans for properties that are being acquired or repositioned as part of a new business strategy.
Walker & Dunlop Managing Director Joshua Rosen and the bridge lending team structured the financing to cover acquisition costs for the owner, Cascade Capital Group. Featuring flexible prepayment options, the loan includes a nine-month term with full-term interest only payments. The property is well-positioned to convert to permanent financing through the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) in late 2020.
Mr. Rosen commented, "This transaction is a perfect representation of Walker & Dunlop's unique range of offerings, which provide tailored solutions to our clients when they need them. Our short-term financing enabled the borrower to quickly execute this acquisition on an expedited timeline. He added, "It's a pleasure to offer a longtime client the experience and service that differentiates Walker & Dunlop."
