Another Texas SNF For National Health Investors
National Health Investors added another Texas skilled nursing facility to its portfolio with the purchase of a 121-bed facility in Waxahachie for $14.4 million, or about $119,000 per bed. The acquisition is the second of four that NHI had previously committed to and will be added to the existing master lease with The Ensign Group at an initial rate of 8.2%, plus annual escalators based on inflation. This brings Ensign’s Texas total to 16 skilled nursing facilities. Explaining the high per-bed price is the facility’s age, having just opened in November 2016. NHI funded the deal with proceeds from its revolving credit facility. Read More »
Sinking Supportive Living Facility Sells In Chicagoland
The time had finally come for the Village of Dolton (a suburb south of Chicago) to sell its 126-bed supportive living facility, as the town handed over the keys to an experienced private owner. Built in 1970, the five-story facility had undergone an extensive renovation in 2008 to accommodate the SLF license. However, years of hiring third-party managers had not improved operations at the facility.

The facility also went years without capital improvements, which certainly did not help occupancy nor its... Read More »
Heavenrich & Company’s Heavenly Start
Starting 2018 off strong, Brian Clark of Heavenrich & Company sold two small memory care communities in Loveland, Colorado. This wasn’t the first deal Heavenrich & Company has handled on behalf of the family-run seller, having previously sold their communities in New Mexico. This Loveland deal featured two adjacent communities purpose built in 2010 and 2015. Each operated as a stand-alone family-run community and featured 20 units and 40 beds, combining for 80% occupancy based on units. Madison Realty Companies emerged as the buyer, paying $8.44 million, or about $210,000 per unit, for the communities, with an 8.9% cap rate. Read More »
New York Not-For-Profit Sells To Post Acute Partners
The IPA Seniors Housing team represented a not-for-profit health system in its sale of a 120-bed skilled nursing facility in Brockport, NY. Founded in 1944, the facility was part of the Lakeside Health System until, after years of financial distress, the system sold most of its assets and closed the 61-bed acute-care hospital adjacent to the Brockport SNF. The facility, whose current four-story building was constructed in 1997, remained a separate not-for-profit corporation without a union. It is composed of one floor of administrative offices, the kitchen and dining services, and the top three floors each containing six private rooms and 17 semi-private units, for a total of 120 beds....
