Sims Mortgage Funding

Established in 1984 as a subsidiary of HJ Sims, Sims Mortgage Funding, Inc. (SMF) originates, underwrites, and funds loans for healthcare and housing projects. We focus primarily on financing insured through Federal Housing Administration (FHA) programs, which are administered under the authority of the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

SMF is a nationally recognized investment banking firm that specializes in debt and equity financing for the senior living industry.

SMF helps clients procure financing for:

  • Construction
  • Rehabilitation
  • Expansion
  • Acquisition
  • Refinancing of existing debt

In addition, we provide consulting and financial advisory services to borrowers with respect to construction loan servicing, asset management, debt restructuring, mortgage note modifications and tax-exempt bond financing.

FHA-Insured Financing for Healthcare and Housing

Financing Programs

When you partner with SMF, you get proven FHA expertise, technical proficiency, personalized service, and a can-do, make-it-happen approach. We also deliver financing solutions that go beyond only tax-exempt offerings.

Healthcare

With more than 30 years of hands-on experience, SMF understands every aspect of FHA-insured loan programs and underwriting requirements so we are experts in both FHA and non-FHA financing solutions.

Housing

Whether your project qualifies for Multifamily Accelerated Processing (MAP) or requires a non-FHA financing solution, Sims Mortgage Funding can help you to quickly access affordable capital at very attractive terms.

Best of Both Worlds

We are champions of the benefits and opportunities that HUD/FHA programs offer our clients. Yet we realize that this approach does not meet every project’s needs. We are able to deliver a complete range of financing solutions – both taxable and tax-exempt.

Proven HUD/FHA Experts

With more than 30 years of hands-on experience, we understand every aspect of FHA-insured financing. This ensures a nimble, efficient process where promises are kept, expectations are managed, and even the most complicated deals are done right.

Industry Thought Leaders

We are known and respected by our peers in the industry. We serve on committees that establish HUD policies and have access to senior HUD people. We talk to them about policy one day; then about projects the next. And our clients reap the benefits.

Client Focused Organization

We’ve developed a tried-and-true process that works, so we can navigate the inevitable issues and hiccups and get the best deal for our clients. We know the best deal is one that gets closed quickly, so we don’t promise things that can’t be delivered.

HUD Plus®
HUD Plus® is a program offered exclusively through our parent company, HJ Sims. This program enables our borrower clients to increase their leverage on a healthcare transaction beyond the standard 80% loan-to-value threshold up to 92.5% of value
