Helios Closes Seven-SNF Texas Transaction
A skilled nursing portfolio sold in Texas with the help of Chicago-based Helios Healthcare advisors. The seller, a regional developer, engaged Helios to sell the real estate of seven facilities, which were subject to existing leases with two of the largest operators in the state. Comprising 852 beds, these facilities were on average 14 years old (relatively young for the sector), the portfolio’s leases were non-performing due to the pandemic. But demand for SNFs is high, and 12 offers were procured from various healthcare real estate investment groups that ranged from publicly traded entities to private family offices. In the end, an Arkansas-based real estate investment group paid $57.8... Read More »SLIB Sells Two AL Communities in South Florida

Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors made its mark at the NIC Fall Conference with three transaction announcements revealed while the industry descended on D.C. First, Blueprint closed the sale of a skilled nursing facility in Florida. Southern Oaks Care Center of Pensacola, Florida is a 210-bed facility that rebounded to pre-pandemic occupancy of 91% with over $4.0 million in annualized trailing EBITDAR, generating a 21.0% operating margin. Plus, Southern Oaks was slated to benefit from the upcoming Medicaid reimbursement rate increase, so there is still room for growth. A cash-flowing SNF is a hot commodity right now, and a competitive bidding process saw an out-of-state partnership... Read More »Evans Senior Investments Sells in Indiana
Amid a spate of September transactions, Evans Senior Investments announced the sale of a 100-bed skilled nursing facility in Indiana. The team worked on behalf of the seller, a regional owner/operator, to market the facility and showcase the potential for additional revenue with the facility’s recently renegotiated UPL contract with a local hospital. At the time of marketing, the facility posted $10.2 million in total revenue with an above-average operating margin of over 30%, and it was 71% occupied. On the other hand, there was a significant Medicaid rate decrease from the July 2022 Medicaid rates released by the state of Indiana, so not all will be rosy going forward. But that operating...

VIUM Capital announced a plethora of transactions in the month of August, totaling approximately $200 million across six financings. The firm first closed a bridge acquisition loan for a pair of skilled nursing facilities in Arkansas. The loan totaled $19.9 million.

Nick Stahler and Michael Mooney of The Knapp-Stahler Group of Marcus and Millichap sold a37-unit residential care facility in Oregon that specializes in traumatic brain injuries and other cognitive disorders. The property sold for $9.25 million or $250,000 per unit. It maintained strong occupancy and financial performance throughout the pandemic. Plus, the regional owner/operator buyer which has a presence in the state sees upside in revenues and margin, which we imagine helped the deal pencil out for them. The sellers developed and operated the facility over the past 20 years and were able to secure multiple offers on the property. Read More »Lloyd Jones Gets Bigger in Texas
Lloyd Jones continues to march across the country acquiring senior living communities that have included trophy properties and value-add opportunities, alike. The investment firm just bought a 75-unit senior living community in Granbury, Texas (Dallas-Fort Worth MSA) from Living Care Lifestyles for an undisclosed amount. JLL Capital Markets’ Charles Bissell and Dean Ferris represented the seller in the transaction.

The Labor Department’s latest inflation report was certainly not the news that everyone was hoping for, and that many were expecting. According to the report, the core consumer price index, which excludes energy and food, rose 6.3% in August from a year earlier, up from 5.9% in both June and July. That was the real shock of the report, and the Dow plummeted by more than 1,100 points at one point on Tuesday. Crucially, this is the last report released before the Fed meets on September 20 and 21, which only increases the chances of another 75-basis point increase to the federal funds rate. M&A has already been affected by the rise of interest rates this year, so another jump (along with... Read More »The Prestige Group Announces Assisted Living Sale
