Development Team Closes on $100M Loan for Sr. Living Community

BLDG Real Estate and The Fellowship Family closed on $100 million in financing for the 205-unit Fellowship Wildlight in Nassau County.

The Jacksonville Business Journal reports the financing team for the venture includes Peachtree Group, Florida Development Finance Corporation, Farmers & Merchants Bank, a Greystone fund and Promus Realty.  

Fellowship Wildlight will be located within Rayonier’s 24,000-acre Wildlight community and will have eight cottages, 24 memory care units, 48 assisted living units and 125 independent living units.

The project team for Fellowship Wildlight includes Elkins Construction as general contractor, Stewart & Conners as the architect.

This marks the third Fellowship senior living community in Northeast Florida. BLDG Real Estate and The Fellowship Family acquired and repositioned a 43-unit senior community, Fellowship Amelia Island, in April 2025. In August 2025, The Fellowship Family and BDG Real Estate acquired Fellowship Cove at Marsh Landing, a 101-unit community in Ponte Vedra Beach.
