60 Seconds with Swett: Latest Senior Care Valuation Statistics Are Released

Thank you to all of our industry friends who helped us in that effort, because the large sample size allowed us... Read More »
60 Seconds with Swett: Values Soar Across All Sectors
We have been hard at work collecting and enriching our 2025 M&A data, and many listeners can attest to receiving a number of calls and emails from me over the last couple of months, and the result was the most deals we have ever compiled in any year, as well as the most property financials and cap rates. So a big thank you to all of our industry friends who helped in this effort. Prices soared in all sectors, and set a couple of records. The average price per unit for assisted living properties reached $268,600, more than $20,000 higher than the previous record set in 2019. The independent living sector also hit new heights, with an average price per unit of $263,600. Average... Read More »
60 Seconds with Swett: Annual M&A Activity Shatters Records
We may sound like a broken record, but the M&A market keeps setting records and reaching new heights in the seniors housing and care industry. And it is smashing the previous records. In 2025, LevinPro LTC recorded 871 publicly announced transactions, which broke the previous annual record set in 2024 by 21%. Not only that, 2024’s total had beaten the previous annual record by 28.5%. So we have been on a proverbial rocket ship in the last two years. Much of the activity has centered around the seniors housing market, as despite intense buyer demand for skilled nursing facilities, there has been a relative dearth of facilities available for sale. Seniors housing deals, meanwhile, have... Read More »
60 Seconds with Steve Monroe: You’ve Got To Be Kidding
Sadly, we are not kidding. President Trump has shown his true colors, and his true loyalty to the almighty dollar, with yet another pardon of one of the bad boys of senior care. But this bad boy is the worst of the group. We are referring to the just announced pardon of criminal Joseph Schwartz, the former owner of Skyline Health. Several months ago, after his last senior care pardon, we ended a story with, who’s next, Joseph Schwartz? We were kidding, but not laughing now. Not only did he commit a nearly $40 million fraud against us, the taxpayers, but he also put the well-being of several thousand patients in his nursing homes in jeopardy as he sucked as much cash out of them as he could...

60 Seconds with Steve Monroe: Record M&A Year, Again
You may start to get tired of hearing us talk about all the records being set, but we will never tire of it. As of November 11, we have passed last year’s record of total acquisitions in the seniors housing and care sector, now standing at over 720 deals, according to LevinPro LTC. And we thought last year was an amazing year! The good news is that pricing has been relatively reasonable so far, mostly because of still-high interest rates and lenders not getting too aggressive. What we don’t know is how long this will last. “Stupid” money that has appeared in previous rising markets has not yet reared its ugly head, but that will probably change. Everyone is looking for a growing market,... Read More »Schedule a demo
