Products and lanes

The official homepage says Eastern Union arranges refinancing and acquisition financing across locations and property types, and names HUD, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, CMBS and agency loans. It also describes:

Equity: equity advisory and capital introductions through Eastern Equity Advisors.
Healthcare: owners and operators of skilled nursing and assisted living/memory care facilities, CCRCs and hospitals, with acquisition loans, bridge and HUD financing, A/R advance lines, cash-outs, partnership buyouts and permanent debt placement.
Bridge and structured finance: a dedicated bridge and structured-finance department.
Mobile home parks: an MHP division that works with private lenders, banks, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and CMBS for stabilized and bridge financing.

Geography

The official office list shows a multi-office footprint in New Jersey, New York and Maryland. The healthcare description says that group serves owners and operators nationwide. Coverage for any specific market should be confirmed with the firm.

Where it fits

Eastern Union sits in the intermediary lane: a borrower or sponsor uses it to reach lenders and capital sources, including agency, HUD, CMBS, bank and private lenders. That makes it a different role from a direct lender such as a debt fund or agency lender, even when the same loan programs appear on both sides.

Observable fit cues, not statements of current appetite:

A sponsor wants a broker to run a debt placement across several lender types.
The asset is healthcare or senior living, or a mobile home or RV park.
The deal needs bridge or structured financing, or an equity introduction alongside debt.
