60 Seconds with Swett: Annual M&A Activity Shatters Records

60 Seconds with Swett: Annual M&A Activity Shatters Records

We may sound like a broken record, but the M&A market keeps setting records and reaching new heights in the seniors housing and care industry. And it is smashing the previous records. In 2025, LevinPro LTC recorded 871 publicly announced transactions, which broke the previous annual record set in 2024 by 21%. Not only that, 2024’s total had beaten the previous annual record by 28.5%. So we have been on a proverbial rocket ship in the last two years. Much of the activity has centered around the seniors housing market, as despite intense buyer demand for skilled nursing facilities, there has been a relative dearth of facilities available for sale. Seniors housing deals, meanwhile, have... Read More »
60 Seconds with Steve Monroe: Record M&A Year, Again

60 Seconds with Steve Monroe: Record M&A Year, Again

You may start to get tired of hearing us talk about all the records being set, but we will never tire of it. As of November 11, we have passed last year’s record of total acquisitions in the seniors housing and care sector, now standing at over 720 deals, according to LevinPro LTC. And we thought last year was an amazing year! The good news is that pricing has been relatively reasonable so far, mostly because of still-high interest rates and lenders not getting too aggressive. What we don’t know is how long this will last. “Stupid” money that has appeared in previous rising markets has not yet reared its ugly head, but that will probably change. Everyone is looking for a growing market,... Read More »

PACS Group Gets Breathing Room After Defaults

PACS Group Gets Breathing Room After Defaults

PACS Group (which operates 314 communities across 17 states), Truist Bank, and PACS’ lenders entered into forbearance agreements on Wednesday, August 13. This is the fifth change to the agreements. Deficiencies in financial reporting across multiple periods resulted in defaults under its master lease with Omega Healthcare Investors, which triggered related defaults under the company’s credit agreement.  Truist and the lender group agreed to hold off on taking action over the defaults until October 31, 2025, with the option to extend that deadline to November 30 or longer if they choose. The landlords under the Omega Master Lease also agreed to pause enforcement during this same... Read More »
