Blueprint Arranges Complicated SNF Transaction

Blueprint Arranges Complicated SNF Transaction

A struggling skilled nursing facility in Dayton, Ohio that has gone through survey issues and financial insolvency in recent years found a new owner with the help of Connor Doherty and Ryan Kelly of Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors. The 108-bed facility, which was built in 1975 and has been relatively well maintained, was previously owned by a not-for-profit.

The HUD loan on the property was eventually turned back to the agency, and the fair market value of the asset was determined to be less than the HUD... Read More »

It also reported strong cash flow and was relatively new construction, having been built in phases from 2009... Read More »
