SLIB Closes Two Other Midwest Transactions
No rest for Senior Living Investment Brokerage on Labor Day, apparently, as the firm closed a couple of Midwest closings on the heels of its Missouri sale to Strawberry Fields REIT.

This property was Cacciabando’s first ever sale back in 2007, which he closed with Binder.
