Healthpeak Properties Jumps Back into Seniors Housing

Ever since Healthpeak Properties essentially exited the seniors housing market in 2021, we had wondered when they would come back. We even thought they could have jumped back in just a year later when rumors were circulating that Brookdale Senior Living was in talks about a potential sale.  The M&A opportunity in seniors housing, and the fact that its REIT peer group have been accelerating their acquisition efforts in the last year, must have been too good to pass up, as Healthpeak is now forming Janus Living, a REIT that will own, acquire and develop seniors housing properties under a RIDEA structure. An IPO is planned in the first half of 2026, after which Healthpeak intends to... Read More »

Behavioral Buyer Gets Vacant VA Asset

Some brokers have been taking advantage of behavioral health providers’ desire to grow in order to sell vacant seniors housing assets, and getting higher prices for their clients as a result. Toby Siefert and Dave Balow of Senior Living Investment Brokerage arranged the sale of Mayfair House, a 53-unit assisted living community in Portsmouth, Virginia (Norfolk MSA), that was sold vacant by a local owner/operator of seniors housing communities in the Shenandoah Valley and surrounding areas. The community was built in 1994 and features 27,300 square feet on 1.3 acres.  As a seniors housing asset, a sale would not get the seller the value they needed. But Siefert and Balow engaged some...

Tenant Acquires California Property

JCH Senior Housing Investment Brokerage announced the sale of a 77-unit assisted living/memory care community in the High Desert region of California.
