SLIB Tops $1 Billion in Texas Transactions
Senior Living Investment Brokerage and Matthew Alley topped $1 billion in transaction volume in the state of Texas following the sale of a portfolio of four skilled nursing facilities. The Cascades Portfolio features a combined 647 beds and locations in Port Arthur (two), Houston and Galveston. The facilities were built from 1955 to 1993, with various renovations over the years. Performance could be improved, since occupancy sat at just 42%, and the portfolio was generating little cash flow on $24.24 million of revenues. It may not have helped that these were the only Texas facilities owned by the Utah-based operator/seller. A Texas-based real estate owner bought the portfolio for... Read More »

Another Spring NIC is in the books, and it was great to see so many industry friends in Nashville, which was a great setting for the conference, we must say. And it was another record attendance, with around 500 first-time attendees too. That surely is a sign of seniors housing’s appeal to potential new entrants. And they added to the positive energy in the room, overcoming some worried chatter about the Middle East, oil’s impact on inflation and the recent surge in the 10-Year Treasury Rate. There are plenty of deals, big and small, going around, leaving us more confident that we will break another M&A record in 2026. What we also left Nashville more confident about, which surprised...
