Senior Care Realty Sells Wisconsin Assisted Living Community
Mark Van Den Broeke of Senior Care Realty led the sale of an assisted living community in the Milwaukee area of Wisconsin with an unconventional history. That is because it was a former convent, but the 60-year old community has been operating as a 24-unit/27-bed assisted living community in South Milwaukee for many years. Built in 1960, it has recently been renovated, and occupancy was hovering around 100%. Operations were also solid, and the community made a profit on mostly government funding. The deal was actually fully negotiated and closed pre-COVID but just now has risen to the surface. The community sold for $1.305 million, or $54,400 per unit, at a 10.5% cap... Read More »
HJ Sims Refinances Two Senior Care Communities
HJ Sims closed a small loan for a seniors housing community in Kansas City, Missouri, and provided ownership with about $61,000 in annual debt service savings as a result. The 81-unit community caters to low-income seniors and was in need of some repairs. Also, real estate taxes had recently been imposed on the property, meaning that ownership had to buoy its finances (which was fixed by the Section 8 revenue) quickly in order to maintain a 1.05x debt service coverage that was required for not-for-profit borrowers. So, HJ Sims arranged a $3.237 million loan through HUD, which extended the community’s debt maturity by 12 years. With the funds, ownership was also able to replace electrical... Read More »

San Bernadino County Community Sells To In-Place Tenant
A competitive bidding process ended with the sale of an 83-unit assisted living/memory care community in Yucaipa, California (San Bernadino County). The winning bidder ended up being the existing tenant, which paid $13.9 million, or $167,500 per unit. Jim and Cindy Hazzard of JCH Senior Housing Investment Brokerage handled the transaction. Previously owned by a partnership, this community was built in 2003 and 2004 with 54 assisted living units, 29 memory care units and 130 total licensed beds on a 7.5-acre campus. The deal was supposed to close in March but was delayed by the pandemic, and in the end, there was no change in the purchase price. It certainly helped that operations were... Read More »
Senior Care Realty Handles Wisconsin Transaction
Bob Richards of Senior Care Realty represented a husband and wife team in their sale of a small assisted living community in Manitowoc, Wisconsin, thereby allowing them to retire from the business. This was their only senior care asset, which they developed in 2014 to feature 24 assisted living units and 26 beds, with a small portion of those set aside for memory care. Operations were strong with occupancy in the mid-90s and an operating margin of 31% on about $1.1 million of revenues, which did not drop off much as a result of the pandemic. With such consistent performance, there was also no movement on the final purchase price negotiated before COVID of $3.1 million, or $130,000 per... Read More »

HJ Sims Secures Financing For CCRC Expansion
We mentioned last week that the lending market for not-for-profit CCRCs has been quite active, particularly to fund expansion projects, and another one was announced by HJ Sims. Sims raised $38.18 million for Presbyterian Villages of Michigan (PVM), a Michigan-based not-for-profit that has been operating since 1945. Sims’ relationship with PVM began in 2015 when they underwrote a bond issue and then continued to provide advisory services. In 2002, PVM acquired land adjacent to its Village of East Harbor campus for an expansion project. Sixteen years later, they opened a new health and wellness center. The current financing by HJ Sims will finance the... Read More »
