We reported on CareTrust REIT’s acquisition of a particularly large (for them) SNF portfolio in Ohio that included 16 skilled nursing facilities, of which 14 would be owned and two would be leased, for $175 million. With the deal closing, that number has dropped to 15 SNFs (14 owned and one leased), which are selling for $173 million, or about $144,200 per bed, with a 13.3% cap rate. Occupancy across the portfolio averaged 83%, with an 18% quality mix. Dan Baker of CBRE brokered the transaction, which is the fifth largest skilled nursing deal, by price, seen so far in 2015.
