Helios Healthcare Advisors Arranges Acquisition Financing for Texas ALF
Helios Healthcare Advisors helped arrange acquisition financing for the purchase of a 40-bed assisted living community in Bulverde, Texas, on behalf of a Texas-based buyer.

Good News For Ventas, and Seniors Housing
Ventas just released its fourth quarter earnings as well as full-year 2022, and its seniors housing portfolio is looking up. Year-over-year same-community performance improved in all categories. Average occupancy increased by 140 basis points to 82.5%. While this is not a great increase for a 12-month period given the lows they were coming from, we’ll take it. Same-community cash net operating income increased year over year by 19.1% to $150.5 million, and the operating margin expanded by 220 basis points to 24.5%. Now, this is not even close to the old days, but a nice pickup. We believe, however, that these numbers include the various government payments which are going away, so the... Read More »

60 Seconds with Steve Monroe: Why the SNF Investment Market Is Strong
The annual eCAP Summit in Florida has come to an end, and with more than 1,500 attendees, let’s just say there is a lot of interest from investors. The mood, however, was a bit more subdued than last year, according to our editor who attended. But does the investment interest make sense when the American Health Care Association continues to claim that if things don’t change, 52% of nursing home operators may not make it past this year? And 55% of AHCA’s members responding to a survey say they are operating at a loss. The problem is that no one identifies what a “loss” is. If a “net loss,” then it is after all capital costs and non-cash depreciation expense. But why the loss? And why buy... Read More »
