Atlas Healthcare, a skilled nursing provider based in central New Jersey, acquired a portfolio of 3 senior care properties in the greater Hartford, Connecticut area. Evans Senior Investments represented them in the transaction.

Investment banking firm Ziegler just came out with its quarterly analysis of the CCRC (LPC) market, using the NIC MAP census data. For the 99 NIC primary and secondary markets, CCRC average census increased by 50 basis points to 86.0% from the first to the second quarter. This is about 690 basis points higher than non-CCRCs. The analysis covers 1,097 not-for-profit and for-profit CCRCs, both entrance-fee and rental in the 99 markets. We do not know about the other 900+ CCRCs in the country. Occupancy growth since the bottom of the pandemic has been slower in CCRCs than the rest of seniors housing mostly because census did not fall as much during the pandemic, with a relatively healthier...

California-based investment group, Tailwind Investment Group has acquired the active adult community Vista Grande in Rio Rancho, New Mexico. Built in 1972, the community comprises 168 units and sits on 11 acres just outside of Albuquerque. Cooper Street Capital (the seller) utilized Northmarq Investment Sales to help them sell the fully leased community. Tailwind purchased the asset with the intention of making renovations to the property as well as planning for future acquisitions in New Mexico. The location of Rio Rancho appealed to Tailwind because about 100,000 people in the area hold a median household income about 20 percent higher than the rest of the Albuquerque metro area....

Andrew Montgomery, Co-Founder and Vice President of Montgomery Intermediary Group, closed the sale of an assisted living community in Tennessee. The community’s owner and operator was looking to retire from the seniors housing business and sold it to another owner/operator in the Nashville area that was looking to expand on its existing portfolio. When stabilized, the community could be operating above 20% margins, which would amount to more than a 10% cap rate on the deal. That is the opportunity for the buyer, as well as the risk. The purchase price was not disclosed, but we understand it to be around $40,000 per unit. Read More »Chartwell Retirement Residences to Sell Two Facilities
