Buyer Enters SNF Market with Ohio Acquisition

Evans Senior Investments arranged the sale of a 99-bed skilled nursing facility in Ohio. Built in phases from 1946 through 1985, the facility received two significant renovations in 2013 and 2019.

A Recap For The Clare

When Fundamental Advisors and Senior Care Development, together with the manager Life Care Services, purchased The Clare in downtown Chicago out of bankruptcy in 2012 (then known as The Clare at Water Tower), it looked like a risky bet for some people. After all, its reputation was sullied a bit with the bankruptcy, occupancy was low, and there were still people questioning the entrance-fee model of CCRCs. As usual, hindsight is 20-20. With some changes instituted by the buyers, The Clare soon thrived, with occupancy reaching 98% to 99% with a wait list prior to the pandemic. But then census dipped by 400 to 500 basis points during COVID. Other providers should have been so lucky.... Read More »
