Acquisition and Refinance of Healthcare Properties
Our HUD FHA SECTION 232/223(F) platform offers 35-year, non-recourse loans that are designed to allow for lower equity requirements and a flexible lending program.
Section 232 insures mortgage loans to facilitate the construction and substantial rehabilitation of nursing homes, intermediate care facilities, board and care homes, and assisted-living facilities. Section 232/223(f) allows for the purchase or refinancing with or without repairs of existing projects not requiring substantial rehabilitation.
The program allows for long-term, fixed rate financing (up to 40 years) for new and rehabilitated properties and (up to 35 years) for existing properties without rehabilitation.
