Welltower Acquires Two Virginia Memory Care Communities
Brooks Blackmon and Ben Firestone of Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors arranged the sale of two memory care communities in Virginia. The communities are in the enviable position of being stabilized with high occupancy and above-market rates. The Richmond location opened in 2015, and the Virginia Beach property was completed in 2008. Both feature 48 units and 35,000 square feet. A local developer/operator built and managed the communities, which command the top rates in their respective markets, but is now exiting the assets. Welltower, in partnership with ProMedica, paid $31 million, or $322,900 per unit, for the communities. That is right below the average price for Virginia... Read More »

Blueprint Gets Top Dollar for Empty Building
Amy Sitzman and Giancarlo Riso of Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors just sold a 70- unit empty building (70 beds) in the Texas Panhandle for $10 million, or nearly $143,000 per unit. That is an extraordinary price given that it was empty, was never licensed and never opened. Built by Mainstreet in 2019 with 49,959 square feet and fully furnished at the time of the sale (probably needed to dust off the furniture), the facility never opened and was eventually foreclosed on by the bank lender. Mainstreet had built many of these transitional care facilities over the years, several of which never opened as competition for high-acuity, post-acute patients soared, as did the... Read More »

Alta Senior Living Expands Into Florida
Alta Senior Living, with corporate offices in Santa Monica, California and West Palm Beach, Florida, purchased its first senior living community in Florida. Located in Margate, the 175-unit Waterside Landing currently has 175 independent and assisted living units. But 22 units on the first floor will be converted to secured memory care. Alta will spend about $6.5 million on this conversion plus other upgrades to the building. Waterside Landing was built in 1989 and had partial renovations a few years ago. It has a total of 187,000 square feet, or just over 1,050 gross square feet per unit, which is quite large for that vintage. Currently, the second and third floors are not...
