Allaire Healthcare Acquires PA CCRC
A majority-skilled nursing CCRC in Coal Township, Pennsylvania, was sold by a private PA-based owner divesting his last owned building.

Northland Networks Arranges Two Acquisition Loans
Northland Networks, a member of the First National of Nebraska family, ended 2024 on a high note, closing two acquisition financings for skilled nursing clients in the last several months. One was for a 59-bed skilled nursing facility in rural southern Kentucky that was built in the late-1970s by the same family that is now selling it.
