Built in 2019, the community has 55 assisted living and 30 memory care units. It was 91% occupied, so given its vintage and performance, we imagine it attracted significant investor interest.

Cash Flowing Assets Trade in Florida and Oregon

Blueprint was engaged by a repeat institutional private equity client in the sale of a Class-A assisted living/memory care community in the Clearwater, Florida MSA.

Seller Boosts Census Ahead of Sale to JV

Seller Boosts Census Ahead of Sale to JV

Senwell Senior Investment Advisors sold Rose Hill Retirement Community, a 66-unit, 87-bed assisted living community in Marion, North Carolina. Originally built as a hospital, Rose Hill has been transformed by the seller over the past two decades into a senior care community. After a previous attempt to sell the community was unsuccessful, ownership engaged Senwell, which connected the owners with an experienced operator with an existing portfolio. During the due diligence process, census improved, resulting in a stronger and more stabilized business than originally anticipated. That’s a broker’s dream. Rose Hill’s strong private pay model, minimal competition in the local market and stable... Read More »
Joint Venture Buys Orange County Community

Joint Venture Buys Orange County Community

A high-end seniors housing community in Orange County sold with the help of CBRE National Senior Housing. Aron Will and John Sweeny represented the joint venture seller in the deal, while Will and Matthew Kuronen arranged acquisition financing from a national bank. The loan came with a four-year term, a full term of interest only and a floating rate. A joint venture between Belmont Village Senior Living and Harrison Street Asset Management bought the asset for an undisclosed price. But considering the affluent market and the high-quality Belmont Village brand, we believe it was a high price. Belmont Village Aliso Viejo was built in 2019 and encompasses 3.4 acres and features a... Read More »
