Five Star Exits Skilled Nursing Sector in Portfolio Restructuring
Five Star Senior Living is making a complete exit from the skilled nursing sector and restructuring its portfolio to focus more on larger, lower acuity seniors housing properties. It looks like an acknowledgement of the company’s weakness, and its strengths, to focus on what it does best, at a smaller, more manageable size. Its landlord, Diversified Healthcare Trust, agreed to amend its management agreements and transition 108 smaller senior living communities totaling approximately 7,500 units to other operators by the end of the year. DHC will not have to pay a termination fee and will also no longer have the right to sell up to $682 million worth of senior living communities... Read More »
Monarch Advisors Finances Kansas SNF Acquisition
A local owner/operator purchased a small skilled nursing facility in rural Kansas with an acquisition loan in hand, secured by Alec Blanc of Monarch Advisors. An active, national SBA lender provided the financing, which totaled $721,500 and came with a 25-year, fully amortizing term.

Blueprint Sells Birmingham-Area Community
Brooks Blackmon of Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors sold a well-run senior living community in Birmingham, Alabama. The Alabama-based developer seller originally purchased the property in 2016 when it was just a small assisted living community.

The developer also fully renovated the community in addition to adding the three-story IL building. Inspired Healthcare Capital emerged as the winning bidder and... Read More »
Plains Commercial Real Estate Sells Texas SNF
Daniel Morris of Plains Commercial Real Estate successfully sold a 123-bed skilled nursing facility in Fort Worth, Texas. Built in 1973, the facility was owned by a regional operator that had decided to trim its portfolio. This facility didn’t fit into its portfolio but did for another regional owner/operator, which is seeking to grow its portfolio. Mr. Morris had the facility under contract during the pandemic and worked with both the buyer and seller to get the deal across the finish line. The seller was able to keep the facility free of any major COVID outbreaks throughout the contract period, which certainly helped get the deal across the finish...
