Samuel A. Landy, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented “We are proud to complete another addition to our Fannie Mae credit facility. This refinancing further demonstrates the value created through our business plan. As part of the refinancing process, a certified appraisal was conducted and concluded that these ten communities appraised for $163.5 million, or $82,000 per site. Our total investment in these communities is approximately $66.6 million. The communities have increased in value $96.9 million, or 146% from our cost basis. Our ability to acquire value-add communities, complete necessary improvements and increase occupancy through our sales and rental programs generates meaningful property level value.
