Montgomery Intermediary Group Closes Tennessee Transaction

Andrew Montgomery, Co-Founder and Vice President of Montgomery Intermediary Group, closed the sale of an assisted living community in Tennessee. The community’s owner and operator was looking to retire from the seniors housing business and sold it to another owner/operator in the Nashville area that was looking to expand on its existing portfolio.  When stabilized, the community could be operating above 20% margins, which would amount to more than a 10% cap rate on the deal. That is the opportunity for the buyer, as well as the risk. The purchase price was not disclosed, but we understand it to be around $40,000 per unit. Read More »
