SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Lument has closed a $28 million bridge loan to facilitate the refinancing and limited partner buyout of Greenfair Apartments, an age-restricted, low-income apartment property located in Sacramento.
Aaron Wooler of Lument led the transaction on behalf of the borrower, Western America Properties, an affordable housing owner/developer. The firm specializes in acquiring, rehabilitating, preserving and managing HUD-insured, Section 8 apartment communities.
Western America Properties originally acquired Greenfair Apartments in 2001 and subsequently renovated the 386-unit property. All units at the property benefit from project-based Section 8 housing assistance payment (HAP) contracts. The bridge loan will enable the sponsor to focus on obtaining permanent financing, renewing its HAP contracts and continuing to provide housing for low-income seniors.
