Carnegie Capital Closes Acquisition Financing
JD Stettin of Carnegie Capital has announced another acquisition financing, this time for two skilled nursing facilities in north central Texas. Combining for 206 licensed beds and 54,000 square feet, the facilities were built in the mid-1970s. Occupancy could be improved, but that is not surprising given the past year. A national private fund emerged as the buyer, partnering with regional and local operators to manage the facilities. They paid $8.5 million, or $41,300 per bed. Mr. Stettin secured a hybrid bank/private loan at 80% loan-to-cost (so, $6.8 million), which came with a three-year, interest-only term and a rate in the mid-4s. Read More »
CBRE Closes Large Florida Refinancing
CBRE Senior Housing’s Aron Will, Austin Sacco and Adam Mincberg closed a large refinancing for a seniors housing community still in early-stage lease up in the Miami, Florida market. The community is also large and considered to be upscale. Working with a debt fund, CBRE secured a $78 million loan, which came with a three-year term and a floating interest rate. There was also a full term of interest only. Given the property is still in lease-up, we assume that this loan took out previous construction debt, but no other details were disclosed. Read More »

The 55+ Market Builds Momentum
Coming out of the pandemic, investors are enamored with the 55+ or active adult market, but we will see if that enthusiasm turns into overexuberance. Perhaps the brightest star in seniors housing coming out of the pandemic has been the active adult market, and investors took notice. Census stayed strong relative to the other sectors, and owners tout their lower average move-in age, more approachable rents for residents, lower labor costs and higher operating margins. As a percentage of seniors housing deals announced, according to our deal database, active adult has grown its share from a paltry 2% in 2019 to 6.4% in 2020 and 8.2% so far in 2021. Plenty of firms have also announced... Read More »
Healthcare Trust Divests Two Florida Facilities
Cushman & Wakefield’s Senior Housing Capital Markets team completed the sale of two skilled nursing/assisted living facilities on behalf of the public, non-traded REIT, Healthcare Trust, Inc. These two properties represent the last of the three strategically planned majority-skilled nursing property sales in the state of Florida, after having already sold its SNF in Lutz earlier this year for $20 million, or a gain on sale of real estate investments of $3.8 million. Cushman & Wakefield handled all three property sales. Healthcare Trust acquired one of the communities, The Addington at Wellington Green in Wellington, Florida, seven years ago. Built in 2011, it features a 120-bed... Read More »
Ziegler Sells Two Healthpeak Properties/Brookdale Senior Living CCRCs
Ziegler’s Dan Revie Tedd Van Gorden represented Healthpeak Properties in the sale of its last two entrance-fee CCRCs that were part of its joint venture with Brookdale Senior Living. The deal includes Foxwood Springs, a 434-unit campus in Raymore, Missouri, and Robin Run, a 457-unit campus in Indianapolis, Indiana. Both were originally part of the National Benevolent Association portfolio that went through bankruptcy proceedings over a decade ago. And after Healthpeak bought out Brookdale’s interest in the joint venture in Fall 2019, these were the only two campuses excluded from that transaction. Subsidiaries of the Texas-based not-for-profit Boncrest Resource Group acquired the... Read More »
Evans Senior Investments Sells Vacant Community in Indiana
The team at Evans Senior Investments sold a vacant seniors housing community in Valparaiso, Indiana for $9.15 million, or $93,000 per unit, which at first glance is a strong value for an empty building. After opening its doors in March 2018, the community struggled to lease up and went through two different management companies. The pandemic only made things worse, and ownership decided to shutter the community in September 2020. It currently features 98 units that were set aside for assisted living and memory care. A regional private equity group was able to buy the property at below replacement cost and hired Priority Life Care to operate and oversee the leasing of it. Before Priority... Read More »
Blueprint Sells SNF in Erie, Pennsylvania
Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors handled the sale of a 120-bed skilled nursing facility in Erie, Pennsylvania. Connor Doherty, Michael Segal and Ryan Kelly handled the deal on behalf of the seller. Located in a competitive submarket, the facility was originally built in 1950 and underwent a major expansion in 1982. It had been steadily improving its operations and census prior to the pandemic, reaching about 85% occupancy. However, like at many facilities across the country, census dropped to around 60% by the time of closing. Its regional owner/operator owner deemed the facility to be non-core to its long-term growth plans and hired Blueprint to handle the marketing and sale... Read More »

Bloom Senior Living Sells Two South Carolina Communities
Kandu Capital and its operating affiliate Bloom Senior Living just sold two of their South Carolina assisted living and memory care communities. Bloom at Hilton Head and Bloom at Bluffton have been part of the Bloom family of communities since they were purchased from Brookdale Senior Living in 2013 for $7.2 million, or $61,500 per unit. They were struggling at the time with just $3.5 million of revenues and Bloom turned them around and grew revenues and EBITDA significantly, with EBITDA reaching $1.2 million in 2016. Then, several new communities were opened in the market and COVID-19 appeared. Occupancy dipped but the communities remained very cash... Read More »Schedule a demo
