Las Vegas SNF Commands Premium
We had heard of a high-end skilled nursing facility being marketed for sale in Las Vegas, Nevada, at a very high price for a few months now, and it appears that the sale has closed. Evans Senior Investments announced that it sold Sandstone Spring Valley, a 160-bed skilled nursing facility that was built just 10 years ago. It features an 80-unit ventilator unit, which surely added to its value, and the facility was operating above 90% occupancy. So, we imagine it was very profitable, as well, perhaps with a margin above 15%. New, stabilized SNFs command strong prices in today’s market, almost always justified by strong reimbursement and operations, and Sandstone was no exception. There was... Read More »

SLIB Handles Colorado SNF Portfolio Deal
A portfolio of well-run senior care facilities in Colorado sold with the help of Vince Viverito, Jason Punzel, Ryan Saul and Jeff Binder of Senior Living Investment Brokerage. Located in Fort Collins and Windsor, the four skilled nursing facilities and one assisted living community were built from 1988 and 2018 and featured 445 beds in total.

Ensign Buys Kansas City SNF
The Ensign Group acquired a 45-bed skilled nursing facility in Kansas City, Kansas, that was in need of an operational turnaround. Built in 1974 with additions in 1983 and 1995, Medicalodges Post Acute Care is set on nearly 11 acres in a residential area. It was previously owned by a Kansas-based owner/operator that was divesting in order to focus on its remaining core assets. The facility was under 70% occupied and losing around $950,000 a year on $2.9 million of revenues. That’s where Ensign will hope to do its thing to get the engine humming again. They paid $1.55 million, or $34,450 per bed. Nick Cacciabando, Jeff Binder and Ryan Saul of Senior Living Investment Brokerage handled the... Read More »
Communities Pass Between Family Owner/Operators
A multigenerational family owner/operator recently divested its well-occupied portfolio to a new family owner/operator in Beaverton, Oregon. The all-private pay communities consisted of a 183-unit full-continuum community opened in 2002 and a 58-unit assisted living community opened in 1996. Blueprint handled the sale and financing. The 183-unit community boasted occupancy above 90% and current blended RevPOR of $6,750. That would bring annual revenues to around $13.5 million. The 58-unit community brought occupancy up to the 85% range during the marketing process and mid-to high-teens operating margins. Both communities are well located in the Beaverton submarket of Portland.... Read More »
