Harborside CCRC Sale Approved
Focus Healthcare Partners’ purchase of a struggling CCRC on Long Island has gone through the ringer, but Chief Judge Alan S. Trust of the US Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of New York just approved the sale under modified terms, which should close within the next two months. The property attracted some attention in late 2024 when New York State torpedoed the sale of the long-struggling CCRC in Port Washington, New York, to LCS, citing “a lack of required financial transparency” among other objections. The Harborside, formerly Amsterdam of Harborside, opened in 2010 as a 329-unit, not-for-profit community and filed for bankruptcy in 2014 and again in 2021. It was roughly half... Read More »

Brookdale Senior Living: Slow and Steady
Brookdale Senior Living released its fourth quarter and full-year earnings results this week, and all we can say is that the improvements, while welcomed, are slow and steady. Management has had a lot on its plate the past 18 months or so in a post-pandemic environment, but things like occupancy are moving up, but not as fast as for others. The problem as we have seen and vocalized for several years, is that it takes a long time to move a battleship in a new direction. And as the largest senior living provider in the country, it was a very large battleship to move. Management has successfully put in motion most of the necessary changes for the future, but now comes the execution part, and... Read More »
Three Communities Trade Hands in Pacific Northwest
Blake Bozett and Spud Batt of The Zett Group shot out of the gates in 2025, closing three separate transactions in the Pacific Northwest so far this year. The largest was for an 88-unit seniors housing community in central Washington which closed this week. Owned by a regional operator based in Washington, this community consists of 36 independent living units that were built in 1987 but were non-operational at the time of the deal and 52 assisted living units built in 1997. Emerging from a pool of Pacific Northwest buyers was a single-asset owner/operator based in central Washington that paid $6.2 million, or $70,500 per unit and $114,000 per operational unit. That is a nice price for an... Read More »
The Fellowship Family Grows in Georgia

Joint Venture Acquires High-Quality Asset Near Philly
Alex Florea, Steve Thomes, Kevin Lukehart and Kory Buzin of Blueprint were engaged by a national private equity investor in its divestment of a Class-A, newer-vintage seniors housing community in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania. Built in 2021, the high-rise community offers 190 independent living, assisted living and memory care units. Despite the modern physical plant and desirable sub-market, the community was not stabilized at the time of sale. That makes for an attractive turnaround opportunity that likely drew a healthy bidding environment. Blueprint targeted a subset of experienced and well capitalized investors, owner/operators and REITs and received multiple all-cash offers from a... Read More »
