Lucas of Love Funding closes $5.28 million acquisition loan for Fallbrook Woods

Love Funding's Boston office secured a $5.28 million acquisition loan to finance the purchase of Fallbrook Woods. Leonard Lucas, first vice president, senior loan originator at Love Funding originated the transaction. Fallbrook Woods is a 56-unit assisted living/residential care facility built in 1993. The borrower purchased the facility for $6.2 million. At $5.28 million, the loan represented 85% of the purchase price. Lucas utilized HUD's new LEAN processing in conjunction with the HUD 232/223(f) loan program, which provided the borrower with a 35-year, self-amortizing, fixed-rate loan. The interest rate is fixed at 4.67%, exclusive of HUD's .50% annual mortgage insurance premium. Included in the loan were funds to cover the cost of $50,000 in needed repairs/improvements to the property.
