Clearwater Living Makes First Purchase
A Southern California independent living community that recently changed hands is in for a smooth transition, as its in-place operator stepped in as its buyer. Located in Oxnard (about 75 miles up the coast from Los Angeles), the 136-unit community was originally developed in 2017 by The Wolff Company and operated by Clearwater Living, a regional operator of nine other communities in the West.
