About Us

Privately owned since its founding in 1983 as a real estate investment banker specializing in commercial real estate properties, Cambridge today has three distinctive business units: FHA-insured HUD loans, conventional financing, and investments and acquisitions. The company is one of the nation’s leading senior housing and healthcare debt and equity capital providers with more than 300 closed transactions totaling more than $3.0 billion since the early 1990’s, when the firm began its specialization in providing senior housing capital. Cambridge has consistently ranked among the country’s top FHA-insured HUD lenders (now HUD Lean) and offers an array of conventional lending options, including permanent construction and interim loans on either a floating or variable rate basis. The company’s principal investment strategy includes direct property acquisitions and joint ventures, sale/leasebacks, conventional and mezzanine debt financing, and the acquisition of distressed debt through its Cambridge Investment and Finance Co. subsidiary. Cambridge is the creator of The Signature Experience™, a four-step process designed to transform the traditional lender/borrower relationship and identify “ideal” capital solutions for worthy projects. The company has a national origination office in Los Angeles, and numerous correspondent and brokerage relationships nationwide. Cambridge publishes the bi-monthly e-PULSE!(R) electronic newsletter, which delivers company news and feature stories via e-mail to corporate friends and clients.
