AlerisLife Is Shutting Down
AlerisLife is in the process of winding down its business. The company had struggled for years as a publicly traded company (previously known as Five Star Senior Living) with chronic operational and governance issues, posting repeated net losses, negative EBITDA, low operating margins, and underperforming owned communities.

Shareholder value suffered for some time, with the company finally being acquired in 2023 by ABP Acquisition LLC, a firm majority owned by Adam Portnoy, the CEO of... Read More »

No rest for Senior Living Investment Brokerage on Labor Day, apparently, as the firm closed a couple of Midwest closings on the heels of its Missouri sale to Strawberry Fields REIT.
