Senior Living Investment Brokerage Notches North Carolina Closing

Senior Living Investment Brokerage Notches North Carolina Closing

Its complex past didn’t stop an assisted living community in North Carolina from selling to an in-state operator, albeit for a price of $1.7 million, or just $13,900 per unit. The property’s owner, a regional operator based in the Tar Heel State, originally built it as a skilled nursing facility in 1984. However, when they decided to build a replacement SNF within the county in 2016, the existing facility switched to an adult care home licensed and operated with 92 assisted living and 30 special care (memory care) beds in 90 total units. After a couple of years, the owner decided to close the facility but kept the license and CON active. An assisted living operator also based in North... Read More »

Rocky Mountain High

On the heels of paying more than $500,000 per unit for an 85-unit assisted living and memory care community in the suburbs of Denver, Colorado, Kayne Anderson Real Estate Advisors purchased another community from the same seller, Confluent Senior Living, this time in Fort Collins.   Given that this one opened its doors 30 months ago, we assume it went for a similar price even though the markets are different. A little smaller at 79 assisted living and memory care units, the seller’s operating partner, MorningStar Senior Living, will continue to operate it for Kayne Anderson. Confluent and MorningStar have completed seven previous projects together, in Arizona, Colorado, Iowa and New...
