Milwaukee Senior Care Complex Sells
A large (67,000 square feet) and old (built-in 1964) Residential Care Apartment Complex (“RCAC”) in Milwaukee, Wisconsin sold after falling on hard times. Known as St. Clare Terrace, it is made up of 59 units in a large building that sits on 2.4 acres. At the time of sale, occupancy was just 64%. The property was placed into receivership after the former not-for-profit owner/operator defaulted on their outstanding bonds.

Before debt payments, there was a negative cash flow of about $175,000. Next... Read More »

Going from 60% to 82% in less than five years was no small feat, especially after the bridges that the former ALC management burned with several state regulators. When Sabra bought its 49%...
