HUD 232 Healthcare Financing

HUD 232 Loans for Building or Substantially Rehabilitating Senior Living and Healthcare Facilities

Right now, the market for senior housing is red hot-- and with 10,000 Americans turning 65 each day, it looks like the market will only be getting hotter in the foreseeable future. If you're a developer looking to expand your presence in the senior housing or healthcare market, a HUD 232 loan could be the perfect option. HUD 232 loans allow for the new construction or substantial rehabilitation of senior housing, assisted living, and skilled nursing facilities with 20 or more residents. And just like other HUD multifamily loans, HUD 232 loans are fully assumable (with FHA approval and a 0.05% fee), and are non-recourse. Plus, HUD 232 loans now use HUD 232 LEAN loan processing, a streamlined form of processing which reduces approval times and reduces the need for duplicate paperwork. 

Keep reading below to learn more, or simply click here to download our easy-to-read HUD 232 loan term sheet.

Eligible Properties for HUD 232 Loans

In order to be eligible for HUD 232 financing, a project must: 

  • House 20 or more long-term patients 

  • Provide constant/ongoing medical attention for individuals in need of care 

  • Be licensed by the appropriate city or state organization

  • Have no more than 10% of the gross floor space filled and no more than 15% of the property's income derived from commercial tenants  

Davis-Bacon Wages: Since HUD 232 projects involve federal insurance and construction over $2000, they are subject to the Davis-Bacon act, which requires that all workers be paid the "prevailing wage" in their area. In order to determine the prevailing wage in your area, you can use this free Davis-Bacon wage calculator, provided by wdol.gov.
