A high-quality, well-performing seniors housing community in northern Indiana found a new owner with the help of Ben Firestone, Connor Doherty and Ryan Kelly of Blueprint. The 100-unit assisted living/memory care community appears to be Valparaiso Senior Village, which was built in 2018 across 88,000 square feet.

REIT-Affiliated Owner/Operator Divests Non-Core Asset to Private Owner/Operator
Blueprint facilitated the sale of a non-core seniors housing community on behalf of a national, REIT-affiliated owner/operator. The seller was focused on portfolio optimization through the divestiture of underperforming assets. Kyle Hallion, Steve Thomes and Kory Buzin handled the transaction.
