CHICAGO—JLL officials said yesterday that the company will acquire Oak Grove Commercial Mortgage, LLC, which does business as Oak Grove Capital, to help grow its capital markets capability in the Americas. The St. Paul, MN-based Oak Grove provides debt financing for multifamily and seniors housing real estate, and its Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and HUD/GNMA capabilities will expand JLL’s market-rate, affordable and seniors housing and healthcare financing expertise. Officials expect the acquisition to close by year end.
