Marcus & Millichap Facilitates Virginia Acquisition
English Meadows Senior Living, a Mid-Atlantic owner/operator of 11 communities, added another community to its Virginia portfolio with the purchase of White Oaks at Williamsburg. Built in 2015 and opened in early 2017, the 48-unit memory care community is located in Williamsburg. It features three buildings with 16 units in each. Phoenix, Arizona-based New Dawn Assisted Living was the original developer of this property (plus another in Richmond) but filed for bankruptcy protection before finishing either project. A private investor with a seniors housing portfolio in the Midwest had purchased the Williamsburg project in 2016 for $7.5 million and finished construction soon... Read More »

Bain Capital and CSH Sell Seniors Housing Portfolio
Bain Capital Real Estate and Capitol Seniors Housing have sold a portfolio of seven seniors housing communities located across four states to an undisclosed buyer. We’ll have more details to follow in the November issue of The SeniorCare Investor, but what we know right now is that there are 598 total units of assisted living and memory care. They were relatively new, Class-A communities, so we imagine they sold for a high (albeit undisclosed) amount. Bain and CSH had started growing the portfolio in 2015 through an initial acquisition and subsequent new developments. Read More »60 Seconds with Steve Monroe & Ben Swett: See Y’all in Houston
A lot has changed since we were last elbow bumping with people at the San Diego NIC conference in March 2020. There have been some other in-person conferences in the last few months, but next week’s NIC will be really the first time that the senior care industry is reunited since the pandemic. And we are looking forward to seeing everyone once again. When we’re in Houston, we’d love to hear about your experiences, the difficulties and your successes in the last year and a half whether as an operator, investor, lender or broker. And of course, about any deals you are currently working on. But we are also going to be asking for your predictions in 2022. Be forewarned. We also have our own... Read More »
Ziegler Refinances Two AL Communities
Columbia Pacific Advisors refinanced two of its seniors housing communities, enlisting Ziegler as its exclusive financial advisor to close the transactions. The communities in question are The Landing at Lake Worth in Lake Worth, Florida, and The Linden at Stonehaven Square in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

To refinance existing the construction loans, Ziegler’s Senior Housing & Care Finance Practice closed two bridge debt placements totaling $37.75... Read More »
Blueprint Closes Two More Deals
What a week it was for Blake Bozett of Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors. In the same week that he closed an assisted living community sale in Nampa, Idaho, he and his wife welcomed their first child! We know the latter announcement is probably more important to him, but we’ll focus on the former here. Mr. Bozett facilitated the sale of Streamside Assisted Living and Memory Care, a 79-unit assisted living and memory care community located outside of Boise. Built in 2006, Streamside saw a healthy operating margin around 30% and stable occupancy in the 80s, even during the pandemic. The local sellers have been in the industry for over 20 years but are selling in order to focus on... Read More »

Shareholders Approve Capital Senior Living Restructuring
Last Friday, Capital Senior Living announced that shareholders approved the amended agreement with Conversant Capital to provide needed funds to stabilize the company while it continues to work on increasing census, as well as funds for future growth. This involves plans to raise up to $154.8 million in various financings. This was based on preliminary vote estimates taken after the shareholder vote on Friday. The news of the presumed approval, without giving the breakdown of the voting, sent the shares up by 2.38% to close at $29.68. That is a far cry from where they traded last July. The day before they hit a low of $25.85 during the day, which was the lowest price since August 13. Keep... Read More »
