SLIB Closes Jacksonville SNF Sale

SLIB Closes Jacksonville SNF Sale

Bradley Clousing and Daniel Geraghty of Senior Living Investment Brokerage sold a 120-bed skilled nursing facility in Jacksonville, Florida.

60 Seconds With Swett: M&A Market Limps to Record Annual Total

60 Seconds With Swett: M&A Market Limps to Record Annual Total

We’re in a new year but a number of brokers and lenders may wish we were still in 2022. That is because many of them really made hay when the sun was shining (that sun being the lower interest rates of the first half of the year) and propelled us to a record M&A year, by some margin. After the previous record of 455 transactions in 2021, we have so far tallied 527 deals announced in 2022, a 16% increase year over year. We expect a few more 2022 deals to trickle in, but we did not experience the normal end-of-December rush of closings, except from a couple of brokerages. In fact, only 36 deals were made public during the month. That’s a solid number to end 2022 and similar to the... Read More »
