Seniors Housing & Care Acquisition Stats
The Seniors Housing Acquisition and Investment Report, and the Skilled Nursing Acquisition and Investment Report will be coming soon with better data then ever before.

They will be called the Seniors Housing Acquisition and Investment Report, and the Skilled Nursing Acquisition and Investment Report.

The Good and the Bad of NIC’s Latest Occupancy Numbers
Fourth quarter occupancy may have been flat, but it is sure to decline in the early part of this year. We need to find new ways to deal with it. What great timing, with NIC’s occupancy and construction numbers just released for the fourth quarter, given our webinar tomorrow. Here’s the good news. Occupancy was stable in the fourth quarter, and new construction as a share of existing inventory, while still high at 6.0%, is 130 basis points off its recent high in the fourth quarter of 2017. And, at long last we seem to be reaching equilibrium between new supply and demand. The bad news is that assisted living occupancy is still low at 85.4%, and while unchanged from the third quarter, was... Read More »
Maximizing Occupancy in 2019
If you want to increase your occupancy, cash flow and value, you will have to listen to this upcoming webinar.

Join me next Thursday, January 17, for our 2019 kick-off webinar on Building Occupancy and Value in Seniors Housing. You will learn... Read More »

Omega agrees to buy MedEquities Realty Trust in a cash and stock deal worth $632 million plus assumed debt. I hope everyone had a good break these past few days.

Jingle WELLs
‘Twas the night before NIC… ‘Twas the night before NIC And all through the building Not a broker was stirring. Not even brothers Hilding Multifamily developers had forgotten to take their meds While visions of loose money danced in their heads And KBG in her kerchief, and Lerner in his cap Had just settled down for one last look at NIC Map When down in the bar, there arose such a clatter Arnie Whitman sprang into action to see what was the matter Michael and John had just stepped into the ring To see which one had the best swing The swoon of the WASH members was too much to bear As everyone lost interest and headed for the stair When, what to a...
