When it fits

When does a skilled nursing bridge loan make sense?

One credit team, from the first loan to the long-term exit.

Acquire

Buying a facility or portfolio

Close quickly on a skilled nursing or assisted living purchase, before HUD's timeline allows a permanent loan.

Improve

Operations and census

Time to address operating, property or capital-plan needs, such as census, payor mix, staffing or survey history.

Exit

HUD 232 refinance

Once the property qualifies, affiliate Bravo Capital, MAP and LEAN approved, refinances into a long-term HUD 232 loan.

Common questions

Healthcare bridge loans: what operators ask

Does Bravo Property Trust lend on skilled nursing facilities?

Yes. BPT makes bridge loans on multifamily and healthcare properties, including skilled nursing and assisted living, in Pennsylvania, Florida, the Midwest and other states.

What is a Bridge-to-HUD loan for a nursing home?

A short-term first-mortgage loan planned from day one to move into a HUD 232 loan once the facility qualifies. BPT makes the bridge loan; Bravo Capital processes the HUD loan.

Is the HUD refinance guaranteed?

No. HUD makes its own decision. BPT plans the bridge around a realistic HUD exit, and Bravo Capital, which had a 100% HUD closing rate in 2025, processes the HUD loan.
