SLIB Handles Upstate New York AL Sale
A small owner/operator added to its upstate New York holdings with the acquisition of a 29-unit assisted living community in the town of Randolph, in between Buffalo and Erie.

Family Operator Exits SNF Business in Arkansas
Smaller owner/operators are continuing to exit the skilled nursing market, and it’s no wonder considering the increased complexity of the sector, rising labor costs and stagnant Medicaid rates.

Mom & Pop Exits Wisconsin Community
Mark Van Den Broeke of Senior Care Realty closed the sale of a northern Wisconsin memory care community on behalf of the mom & pop seller looking to divest their only asset. Built in 2015 with high-end finishes, the community has 28 beds and 24 units, with rents averaging $7,000 per month. It boasted 92% occupancy, with a majority of residents being private pay. The community also operated at a roughly 38% margin on about $1.65 million of trailing revenues, but the seller was motivated to exit. An out-of-state family buyer with a handful of properties in Texas but ambitions to grow in the Midwest paid $4.4 million, or $183,300 per unit, for the community. Read More »

So, the seller chose a regional assisted living/memory care operator as the buyer. The purchase price was not disclosed. Read More »
