Joint Venture Acquires in Michigan

Joint Venture Acquires in Michigan

Silver Wave Capital and Persimmon Ventures announced their second joint venture acquisition, buying a 102-unit assisted living/memory care community in Auburn Hills, Michigan. Earlier this year, the joint venture had acquired an AL/MC community in Naples, Florida, to mark their first purchase together, and they plan on more in the next year. The Class-A Michigan asset was built in 2018 by First & Main and features 58 AL and 44 MC units. However, the Auburn Hills market was overdeveloped for seniors housing services, and we understand that the property never reached stabilization. It was previously owned by Hudson Advisors, an affiliate of Lone Star Funds that purchased the community as... Read More »

Tennessee SNF Changes Hands

Tennessee SNF Changes Hands

Evans Senior Investments arranged the sale of a skilled nursing facility in Dresden, Tennessee, on behalf of the Weakley County Commission. Originally built in 1958 with expansions over the years, Weakley County Rehabilitation and Nursing Center features 136 beds and is 100 miles west of Nashville. At the time of marketing, the facility was struggling with a 47% occupancy rate and negative cashflows.

The chosen buyer, a regional owner/operator with holdings in neighboring... Read More »

AL Community Trades in Oklahoma

AL Community Trades in Oklahoma

A small assisted living campus in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, traded in a receivership sale with the help of Amy Sitzman, Giancarlo Riso and Kory Buzin of Blueprint. Built in 1999, Dorset Place includes a standalone 36-unit assisted living building and a separate 33-unit memory care building. There was limited competition in the immediate market, and the property was well maintained. But a new owner could take over and implement expense control measures to stabilize the community’s operating cash flow. We imagine the property would come at a healthy discount to replacement cost, as a result.  Blueprint procured three competitive offers, ultimately advising the receiver, Mike Flanagan, to move...

Dealing in D.C.

A small assisted living community in an affluent suburb of Washington, D.C., sold thanks to Ben Firestone, Steve Thomes and Kory Buzin of Blueprint. Owned by a not-for-profit based in D.C. that deemed the sub-50-unit asset to be “non-core,” the property had struggled operationally since the pandemic, but the “exceedingly rare location” of the real estate attracted a lot of attention from both seniors housing and alternative use buyers. Blueprint’s marketing process yielded several competitive bids before one of the alternative-use bidders emerged with the highest and best offer. They structured an agreement that addressed all the unique complexities associated with the use... Read More »
