Newmark Closes a Cap Rate Deal in Texas

Newmark Closes a Cap Rate Deal in Texas

There was a cap rate deal in Texas at the start of August, a relative rarity in today’s market. Newmark closed the sale of Heartis San Antonio, a 109-unit assisted living/memory care community in San Antonio, Texas, to an undisclosed buyer.

It was nearly full at the time of the sale, with a healthy operating margin.  With so few performing properties available for sale these days, interest from buyers was strong, and we understood pricing reached the mid-$30 million range. The community also sold at a cap rate in the high-6s, a very good... Read More »
