Lucas of Love Funding secures $21.94m HUD loan for Geer senior housing complex
Leonard Lucas of the Boston office of Love Funding has closed a $21,946,900 HUD 232/223(f) financing for the non-profit Geer Senior Housing Complex.
The Geer complex consists of Geer Woods, a 118-unit assisted living facility, and the 120-bed Geer Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation Center.
The loan terms provide Geer an 87% loan-to-value, 35-year, self-amortizing, non-recourse, fixed-rate loan. The loan includes funds for over $1 million in repairs and improvements. It replaces an interim floating rate loan, previously secured by Lucas, which carried a significantly higher annual debt service payment.
Love Funding closed this loan 65 days after its submission of the mortgage insurance application to the Hartford HUD office. Love Funding would like to acknowledge the hard work and expertise the Hartford HUD office demonstrated in expediting the Geer application. The speed of this transaction enabled the borrower to avoid a significant exit fee associated with the pre-existing loan.

Investing in a falling rate environment - by Harrison Klein
Long-term interest rates have fallen by 100 basis points, and the market is normalizing. In December of 2022 I wrote an article about investing in a high interest rate, high inflation market. Since then, inflation has cooled off, and the Fed has begun lowering their funds rate.

The industrial markets have never been stronger. What has happened is that the build out of Devens with new high-tech biotech manufacturing with housing to service these buildings serves as the connector required to really make the I-495 West market sizzle. Worcester has been the beneficiary
