Capital Funding Secures Bridge Financing for Illinois Portfolio Acquisition
A portfolio of six skilled nursing facilities located throughout Illinois sold with the help of bridge financing secured by Capital Funding, LLC. Totaling 594 beds, these facilities are operated by Crown Healthcare, a family-owned company that owns and operates skilled nursing and senior living properties across five states, with its primary focus in the Ohio market. The bridge loan, originated by Craig Casagrande, funds 100% of the acquisition costs. In addition, Capital Funding financed the operations of a seventh skilled nursing facility and also provided about $5.5 million in working capital. Ultimately, they expect to refinance the debt through HUD. This deal follows Capital Funding’s... Read More »
Christian Living Communities Adds to Colorado Portfolio
Christian Living Communities, a Denver-based not-for-profit owner/operator of senior living communities across the country, added a 26th property to its portfolio. Located in Grand Junction, Colorado (just east of the Utah border), the community features 40 assisted living and 26 memory care units. Assisted living rents range from $4,450 a month for a studio to nearly $6,600 per month for a two-bedroom unit, while monthly memory care rates started at $6,620 and went as high as $7,030. Additional care fees can also add $535 to $1,535 a month to the bill. That’s a pretty high price point for the area.

Meridian Capital Closes Two New England Acquisitions
Meridian Capital Group’s mortgage brokerage business has been red-hot so far this year, but its investment sales side has been quite robust as well. All told, the team at Meridian has closed nearly $2.8 billion in business, so far in 2019. Not too shabby. Most recently, Ari Adlerstein, Ari Dobkin and Josh Simpson announced two portfolio sales closed for skilled nursing clients in New England. The first transaction saw six skilled nursing facilities and 536 total beds sold to an institutional buyer. A regional operator is taking over the operations under a triple-net lease. Meridian also arranged a balance sheet loan with a national lender, plus a separate A/R line of credit, to fund the... Read More »
Burke Wraps Up Tennessee Transaction
Patrick Burke of Senior Living Investment Brokerage sold a portfolio of three assisted living communities located throughout Middle Tennessee. A group of local investors originally built these properties in the early 2000s to address a need for senior care in smaller, rural markets. As such, there is limited competition at a couple of the locations, and occupancy averaged around 95% for the portfolio, with a 100% private pay census. Plus, the property in the more competitive market was fully occupied. So, the operator (one of the investors) was doing something right. The portfolio consists of a 50-unit community in Lebanon (about 30 miles east of Nashville) and two 38-unit communities in... Read More »

Over four years ago, C&W originally arranged a $52 million secured term loan and a revolving line of credit from Capital One to both recapitalize the property and provide for future renovations. Built in phases from 1999 to 2015, the property currently features 436 independent living, 19 assisted living and 36 memory care units across four main buildings, in addition to 47 separate villas.

Amenities include a bistro and coffee bar, movie theater, concierge, barber shop, beauty salon, wellness center, and a private office for visiting... Read More »
Capital Senior Living Stock Spreads
One day this week the spread between the bid and the ask for Capital Senior Living’s shares seemed way too wide, which got me thinking. I was a little surprised yesterday morning when I checked on the bid/ask spreads for Capital Senior Living, and saw a very wide discrepancy after the market opened. There was a bid for 4,000 shares at $3.48 per share, while a seller was asking for $3.98 per share for a smaller number of shares. I had not seen such a large difference between what a buyer wanted and a seller. I checked Brookdale Senior Living, and the spread was two cents. So, I re-looked at Capital Senior Living’s third quarter earnings to see what shareholders might be concerned... Read More »
Evans Senior Investments Launches Senior Living Marketing Venture
If the seniors housing industry is ever going to emerge from its current census slump, then rigorous and modern marketing efforts seem like a great way to start. However, many small regional operators and mom & pops have barely left the 20th century in their marketing strategies, and their websites show it. The truth is that they may have been operating just fine for years, but with a lot of new competition and a more tech-savvy clientele, that may not be an option anymore. And they will continue to lose out to the larger, national operators that can afford a comprehensive and state-of-the-art marketing strategy. Also, for the industry as a whole, better marketing can also improve... Read More »
Creativcap Continues Inaugural Year with Several More Closings
Still under a year after its launch, Creativcap has announced three more transactions, with a couple of other closings in the pipeline. First up on the brokerage side, Creativcap Advisory acted as co-broker on a $30 million sale of two senior living communities in the eastern Atlanta market. Built in the 1990s, the communities total 328 units, split among 156 independent living, 140 assisted living and 32 memory care. Combined occupancy was around 80%. A national operator had been managing the communities on behalf of the previous owner, a large private equity, alternative asset management and financial services firm based in New York City, but the Georgia-based buyer is bringing in its...
