Buy an Assisted Living or Senior Care Facility with Financing That Works for You

We Don’t Force You Into a Box — We Build the Box Around You

If you’re ready to purchase an assisted living facility, group home, or memory care residence, you’ve probably already discovered what traditional lenders don’t understand: Senior care real estate doesn’t play by cookie-cutter rules — and neither should your financing. At Creative Real Estate Loans, we’re not a bank. We’re private mortgage bankers who specialize in tailor-made financing solutions for care home buyers like you. Whether you’re an experienced operator expanding your portfolio or a passionate newcomer ready to make your mark, we create a path based on your unique strengths — not your limitations.

 What Makes Us Different

Most lenders will ask you to fit into a pre-set program. If you don’t meet their mold? It’s a dead end. We do the opposite. We start with your goalsyour property, and your capabilities, then engineer a financing solution that works — even if you’ve been turned down elsewhere. Our deals often use a mix of:
  • Property equity
  • Existing or projected income
  • Strategic seller cooperation
  • Bridge lending and creative structures
Because we work with private capital, portfolio lenders, and specialized partners, we have more flexibility than traditional banks — and we use it to get deals done.

Ideal Buyers We Help:

  • First-time or experienced operators
  • Buyers with limited liquidity but strong operational plans
  • Partnerships or family-run businesses
  • Investors converting homes into care facilities
  • Out-of-state buyers looking to break into the Arizona senior housing market
If the numbers make sense, we’re interested.

Creative Structures That Make Closings Happen

Every deal is unique — but here are some examples of how we’ve helped buyers secure their facility:
  • Income-Based Approval: Instead of chasing tax returns or perfect credit, we structured a deal based on projected net operating income (NOI).
  • Seller Participation: We helped negotiate partial seller carryback, reducing down payment needs without slowing the close.
  • Asset-Backed Lending: A buyer secured financing using the property’s existing equity, even though they were light on personal cash.
  • Speed-to-Close Bridge: One investor needed to close in under 3 weeks — we brought in a flexible bridge lender to make it happen, with permanent financing lined up afterward.

 Why Buyers Choose Us:

  • You Speak Directly to Decision Makers No corporate red tape. No junior reps. Just real people who know this niche.
  • We Understand the Business Side of Care We don’t just see a building — we see census, staffing ratios, licensing timelines, and family impact.
  • Deals That Close, Not Just Quotes That Look Pretty We’re obsessed with execution. If we say it can close, it will.

 Let’s Build a Deal Around Your Reality

You’ve found the right opportunity. Don’t let outdated lending rules stand in the way. Let us build a deal that reflects:
  • Your operational vision
  • Your strengths
  • The value of the property itself
This is where creativity becomes capital.

“We had an amazing opportunity to buy a group home in Phoenix but couldn’t get a traditional bank to take us seriously. These guys saw the potential, structured a plan, and we were funded in weeks. Highly recommend.” — T. Reynolds, AZ Buyer/Operator
