Harborview Arranges Bridge Financing
Harborview Capital Partners arranged a bridge-to-HUD loan for a seniors housing community in Oregon. The property consists of 55 beds of assisted living and memory care. It received a $10.275 million loan, which comes out to $186,800 per bed. The loan features a 24-month, interest-only term, with a historically low rate. We know the demand for that sort of relatively cheap debt is out there, but the supply has been hit somewhat by the heightened caution surrounding the pandemic. Eli Osdoba of Harborview originated the transaction. Read More »

Where Are The Gray Panthers?
Seniors in and out of seniors housing communities need to mobilize, and AARP has not been doing its job representing their members. Where are the Gray Panthers when you need them? Many of you may not remember this 1970s activist group that got its start when someone really objected to forced retirement at 65. This was a full 50 years ago today. As winter approaches and senior living providers prepare for another round of potential shutdowns, lockdowns, admission and tour bans because this pandemic is not going away, when will our senior citizens rise up and revolt? Senior living communities are “their” homes, and it is about time they stood up and said, hands off our homes. Yes, we... Read More »
Welltower Provides Update Amid COVID Spread
Once again, we are not picking on Welltower, but as the largest healthcare REIT, and the one with the largest seniors housing owned portfolio (or SHOP/RIDEA), we believe they represent a pretty decent proxy as to what is happening. Occupancy in its SHOP portfolio has been steadily declining since February, but the rate of decline seemed to be abating. Gone are the days of 100+ basis point monthly drops, but October was the first month where the rate of decline (-40 basis points) actually increased since April. Month to date in November, it has already dropped by another 30 basis points (to 77.7%), so if that trend continues, we could see November at a 50-basis point... Read More »
Private Equity Investor Acquires Dallas Seniors Housing Community
Joshua Salzman, Michael Segal and Alex Florea of Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors represented a REIT in its divestment of a 170-unit seniors housing community in Dallas, Texas. Originally built in 1987, community received a thorough renovation in 2013 and additional capital improvements since 2016. Following a previous operator transition, the REIT owner converted the remaining assisted living units to independent living, resulting in the community being fully focused on independent living. Occupancy had initially dropped after the conversion, but the community was repositioned as an affordable independent living option, and census steadily improved as a... Read More »
Meridian Capital Group Reports Active Month
The last month has seen the team at Meridian Capital Group close $672.4 million in transaction volume across 56 total properties. Comprising both financings and investment sales, that’s some impressive action.

Another Major SNF Acquisition Closes
When it rains, it pours, we suppose. Last week, Eagle Arc Partners acquired a portfolio of 20 skilled nursing facilities in the Southeast, the largest SNF deal that we had seen for some time. Just a day later, Evans Senior Investments announced that it handled the sale of 21 skilled nursing facilities across three separate transactions in three Midwest states. The combined purchase price for the portfolio was $86 million, or around $54,000 per functional bed. Eleven of the facilities are located in Indiana and combined for 751 licensed skilled nursing beds (692 functional beds) and 109 senior living units. At the time of marketing, average occupancy was around 78%, with total revenues... Read More »
Keybank Finances Renovation of Senior Apartment Community
KeyBank Real Estate Capital and KeyBanc Capital Markets worked on behalf of National Church Residences to secure acquisition financing for the not-for-profit’s renovation of an affordable senior apartment community in Cleveland, Ohio. Built in 1976, the community sits on two acres next to the Cleveland Clinic. It features 12 stories and 171 total Section 8 units, which came in one- or two-bedroom configurations. National Church Residences’ renovation project will preserve the building as affordable housing in the long term. So, KeyBank provided $14 million in HUD construction financing, with a 40-year term, and also sold $17 million of required tax-exempt bonds. In addition, KeyBank... Read More »
CIBC Bank Funds Indiana SNF Acquisition
CIBC Bank USA facilitated acquisition financing for a regional operator’s purchase of 11 senior care facilities in Indiana. If this deal sounds familiar, that’s because it is part of the larger 21-facility portfolio sale announced by Evans Senior Investments last week. Matthew Tyler and Daniela Miranda of CIBC closed the $51.2 million loan for a regional operator, which purchased the facilities from a local operator. The loan comes with a five-year term on the real estate, and a $5.0 million revolving line of credit was provided to support working capital needs. The portfolio consists of 751 skilled nursing beds and 109 assisted living units. Those 11 facilities have an effective... Read More »
