Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors Unlocks the Keystone State
Representing a REIT owner in a strategic non-core divestment, Michael Segal and Ben Firestone of Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors sold a Philly-area skilled nursing facility for an undisclosed price. The transaction was remarkably similar to another deal that Messrs. Segal and Firestone closed earlier this month. That deal featured a 180-bed SNF in the Lehigh Valley region of eastern Pennsylvania that sold for $18.75 million, or about $104,000 per bed. Just a week later, the Blueprint team sold a 181-bed skilled nursing facility also in eastern Pennsylvania (the Philadelphia suburb of Wyndmoor).

Saul And Clousing Close On Cleveland Campus Sale
A healthcare campus in Cleveland, Ohio with both skilled nursing and Medicaid-waiver assisted living beds just sold to its in-place operating group.

SLIB Sells Value-Add Skilled Nursing Facility In Texas
Certainly having seen better days, a 120-bed skilled nursing facility in Bastrop, Texas with occupancy just below 50% sold for $3.5 million, or $40,700 per operating bed. Originally built in 1987, the facility is licensed for 120 beds, but operated at just 86 beds at the time of the sale, with EBITDA around breakeven. A publicly traded REIT was the previous owner, with a Texas-based group looking to lessen its exposure to the central Texas market as the outgoing operator. The new owner is a self-advised real estate company with a focus on seniors housing, and will look to add value in the asset. Matthew Alley of Senior Living Investment Brokerage handled the transaction. Read More »
