60 Seconds with Swett: M&A Activity Tops 350 Deals in H1:25
In the second quarter of 2025, there were 176 publicly announced transactions, a preliminary number that is almost certain to increase in the weeks ahead. That brings our total for the first half of the year to 355 deals, or 710 on an annualized basis. Considering we finished 2024 with 716 total deals, which was a record by far, we are in a good place for deal activity. After a slow May with 47 deals, we wondered if we would even have a chance of breaking 700 transactions for the year. But June bounced back with 64 deals, including some large portfolio deals. Looking at the second quarter, however, trouble may be brewing. Breaking out U.S. M&A activity, 2024 finished with 593 deals in... Read More »

Improving Ohio SNF Sees Strong Price
Ryan Saul of Senior Living Investment Brokerage secured a strong price for a skilled nursing facility in Cincinnati, Ohio. Built in 1965, the facility was originally licensed for 199 beds, but the decision was made to strategically reduce the beds to 167 to save on provider tax and improve the Medicaid rate. The facility struggled for many years. It was purchased by a Chicago-based investor in 2014 that has subsequently gone bankrupt. The lender took the property back in 2018 due to poor operational management and financial performance, and it ran the facility through receivership, employing a number of managers between 2018 and 2023.
