Pacifica Senior Living Goes Bust
In what can only be said is a surprising move, Pacifica Senior Living filed for bankruptcy, but not the usual Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection that would allow them to restructure their assets and debts and continue to operate. No, this is a Chapter 7 bankruptcy filing, meaning the company will dissolve, liquidate what remains, and will be gonzo. And this after more than 45 years in business. The California-based privately-owned company had grown to just under 100 communities, making it one of the larger seniors housing companies in the country. In its largest transaction, it purchased 15 properties from Retirement Housing Foundation for $180.5 million in 2024. We have heard they suffered... Read More »

Evans Handles Wisconsin SNF Deal
