National Health Investors Rocks The New Year
Bucking the seasonality trend of January and first quarter blues, two of National Health Investors’ large seniors housing tenants posted increases in occupancy in January. Census at Senior Living Communities increased by 20 basis points in January to reach 83.3%. Meanwhile, Bickford Senior Living posted a 70-basis point sequential increase to 85.3%, matching the highest level it has seen in the past few years. The small SHOP portfolio of 15 communities was where the real growth occurred. January’s 30-basis point sequential increase to 84.7% was nice, but it was also 930 basis points higher than in January 2023. The fourth quarter saw a 420 basis-point sequential increase in occupancy and a... Read More »

Blueprint was engaged in the divestment of a seniors housing community in Abilene, Kansas. Blueprint previously worked with the seller in a separate 2023 transaction involving a similar Kansas asset.

Still Slow Go For Brookdale
Brookdale Senior Living is like an aircraft carrier. It takes a long time to change direction, and the current may change while making the attempt. Brookdale is the largest senior living company in the world, and while that fact can have its advantages (data collection, purchasing power, ancillary services, etc.), it can also work against you. In a recent study by NIC MAP of its data, they found that nearly one in three communities operated by “very large” companies have occupancy below 80%. We assume Brookdale is included in those statistics. Brookdale’s portfolio continues to lag behind the overall market with census improvement, and it remains under 80%. Consolidated occupancy in...
