Newmark acted as exclusive advisor to the portfolio owner and borrower, Montecito Medical Real Estate
Newmark Senior Managing Director John Nero, Executive Managing Director Ben Appel and Senior Managing Directors Jay Miele and Michael Greeley of Newmark’s Healthcare Capital Markets group led the transaction. Associate Ron Ott provided transactional support.
The portfolio consisted of seven medical office buildings totaling approximately 200,000 square feet, spanning Pennsylvania (four), Illinois (two) and Florida (one). The properties were 100% leased at the closing to a roster of leading healthcare provider tenants comprised mostly of investment-grade, non-profit health systems and dominant physician networks. Users within the portfolio included a diversified range of attractive specialty services including ambulatory surgery, imaging, orthopedics, gastroenterology, OB/GYN, laboratory and diagnostics, among others.
“We appreciate the opportunity to advise Montecito on this important financing, which generated significant interest from lenders given the portfolio’s stable occupancy, strong credit tenancy and attractive borrower profile, among other attributes,” said Nero. “Lender interest in medical office buildings remains strong given the sector’s fundamentals.”
”We commend Montecito on this successful financing. This is a true testament to the value created by the thoughtful portfolio aggregation strategy, reinforcing Montecito’s investment thesis into defensive, long-WALT medical office buildings,” added Appel.
“We are excited about the financing of this outstanding portfolio of medical properties, and we are pleased once again to partner with the Newmark team as we continue to pursue opportunities in the medical office sector for our company and our investors,” said Chip Conk, CEO of Montecito Medical.
