Columbus, Ohio, February 9th, 2026 – Epcon Communities (“Epcon”) has secured a syndicated senior secured revolving credit facility. Footprint Capital, LLC (“Footprint”) acted as the exclusive debt advisor in the transaction.
Founded in 1986, Epcon is a premier, regional builder of lifestyle communities popular with 55+ buyers and offers a diverse portfolio of home plans that integrate smart and innovative designs with modern amenities. The Company, headquartered in Dublin, OH, operates in Midwest and Southeast markets. Together with its franchise builders, Epcon has served over 40,000 families and individuals calling an Epcon community home.
The syndicated credit facility provides Epcon with future debt capital to grow as the business expands. This facility also allows Epcon to utilize equity in existing projects to propel its growth and reduce the need for alternative capital – mezzanine financing. In addition, it provides a multi-year term and accordion feature that ensures predictable debt capital for the future.
Ed Bacome, Owner of Epcon, expressed "We appreciate the hard work of the Footprint advisory team in bringing the syndication financing to a close. This is a milestone that will be transformative in the manner in which we undertake our community development financing going forward."
