Evans Senior Investments arranged the sale of a seniors housing community in Maumelle, Arkansas (Little Rock MSA). Built in 2007, Stonehaven Assisted Living comprises 60 assisted living units with both private pay and Medicaid residents. However, over the past year, the community faced some major difficulties. At the time of marketing, occupancy was just 53%, causing financial, staffing and other daily operational challenges.
Recognizing the need for a change, the seller, a national healthcare system, chose to exit the market. A private company ultimately acquired the asset and partnered with a Midwest-based operator, marking its second investment in the state. The transaction was finalized within three months of signing the LOI.
