Deals are getting done and there IS lending in the market. However, we are finding that relationship banks are the main sources providing financing for our acquisitions. You must have a long-term, existing relationship with a proven track record in order to obtain financing in today’s market.
If you have access to those types of lending relationships, make sure you take care of them. Be proactive in keeping in touch with your lender and remind them how well you are doing.
If you are looking for that next lending relationship, be on the look out for opportunities. Maybe a lender needs some help/advice with a troubled long-term care or Seniors Housing asset? Network with other successful operators and try to get referred to who they use for financing.
As the economy improves, our hope is that lending will continue to improve. More liquidity will be good for everyone and will improve the overall market.
