Morgan Stanley Fund Pays $93.1M for Florida Senior Housing Portfolio
Why this matters
Capital markets activity continues to be defined by the rotation from bank balance sheets to non-bank lenders. Private credit funds have raised record dry powder; banks have tightened CRE underwriting standards for the sixth consecutive quarter. The result is a market where well-sponsored deals clear, and marginal credit pays a meaningful spread to do so. Deal flow into Tampa continues to reflect this bifurcated lending environment, with mezzanine and preferred equity layers increasingly part of standard cap stacks. For LPs, the allocation conversation has shifted decisively toward real estate debt, with equity allocations being deployed more selectively into operator-led platforms.
