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 »
Construction Costs Go Up for Indiana Senior Living Project
Rising construction costs have stymied a number of senior living construction projects (much to the relief of thousands of operators looking to quickly recover their occupancies), but one development is still going ahead, albeit with a $3 million increase in financing. Evergreen Real Estate Group is building a 120-unit Medicaid assisted living community in Goshen, Indiana, which will feature 49 studio and 71 one-bedroom units, with Gardant Management Solutions serving as operator. Development costs were originally estimated to be $28 million, or $233,300 per unit. The plan was approved in late 2019, and the Goshen City Council approved the issuance of up to $22 million in tax-exempt... Read More »

Ziegler Closes “Green Bond” Financing
Ziegler announced that it will soon issue the first ever “Green Bond” financing for a senior living development. And it is for quite a sum.

Blueprint Sells Entrance-Fee CCRC in West Texas
An entrance-fee CCRC in Odessa, Texas, with a major turnaround opportunity at its on-campus skilled nursing facility, just sold to a regional owner with the help of Amy Sitzman, Jacob Gehl, Giancarlo Riso and Humair Sabir of Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors. Originally built in 1987 with additions made in 1992 and 1997, the Type-C community features 55 independent living units, 23 high-acuity assisted living units and a 90-bed SNF, although just 71 beds were in operation. The independent living portion was almost always fully occupied (or close to it, even during the pandemic), but the SNF struggled with census in the last year, starting in the high-80s and eventually falling...
