LTC Properties on Track for Projected 2025 Pipeline
LTC Properties added two Kentucky assets in the Nashville, Tennessee MSA, to its SHOP portfolio through an off-market transaction.

Both assets are cash-flowing but have upside potential for a new owner. There is also a third asset currently awaiting a HUD assumption and will transition once the approval is complete.
