Blueprint Sets Pricing Record in New York State
Blueprint advised a repeat private equity client in a record-setting sale of two standalone memory care communities in high barrier-to-entry submarkets in New York State. Combining for 104 units, these assets were purpose-built in the late 1990s and were stabilized at the time of the deal. Not only that, they were generating cash flow in excess of $3 million, or nearly $30,000 per unit. Although they were exceptionally strong performers, the buyer market for standalone MC communities can be relatively thin (our webinar on April 23rd touched on the subject). Still, Blueprint sourced a number of reputable buyers with experience transacting in New York, which can be an arduous process, and... Read More »CareTrust Keeps Its Foot on the Gas
