Capitol Seniors Housing’s Latest High-End Development
Always one to develop in affluent, high barrier-to-entry markets, Capitol Seniors Housing is expanding its presence in the New York City metro area with a brand-new assisted living/memory care community in Clarkstown, New York. Situated in the affluent community of New City, the property will feature 80 units upon its completion in early 2020. Atria Senior Living will operate it, drawing on its experience operating similar communities in the tri-state area. Construction costs come in at an approximate $30 million, or $375,000 per unit, which makes sense given the expensive real estate, number of amenities and the high-end finishes. Read More »

Here Comes Helios Healthcare Advisors
There’s a new brokerage business on the block, and it’s called Helios Healthcare Advisors. Founded by Bill Janis (formerly of Cambridge Realty Capital Companies) and Mario Wilson (from Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors), the firm just announced its first transaction, a $6.1 million acquisition financing arranged on behalf of a California-based joint venture. With the debt and equity capital (provided by a private, non-bank lender), a Northern California-based operator and Atlantis Senior Living, based in Orange County, California were able to purchase a 145-bed assisted living community in Joaquin County (Bay Area). In addition to the acquisition financing, Messrs. Janis and Wilson... Read More »
Blueprint Arranges Skilled Nursing Portfolio Sale
A Southeast-based real estate investor acquired four skilled nursing facilities and found two operating partners to take on their management, thanks in large part to Steve Thomes and Trent Gherardini of Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors. Previously owned by an East Coast-based operator, three of the facilities are located in the Boston MSA and one is in eastern Georgia between Atlanta and Savannah. That geographic disparity led Blueprint to find two separate regionally-focused operating groups to enter into two independent leases for the facilities. As a portfolio, the facilities generated more than $2.5 million in EBITDAR on over $29 million of revenues across the 400 beds, for an... Read More »
CBRE’s “Triple-A” Acquisition Financing
Aron Will, Austin Sacco and Adam Mincberg of CBRE helped arrange acquisition financing on behalf of Angelo Gordon & Co. and Auctus Capital Partners to purchase an assisted living/memory care community in Oakland, California. Located in the affluent submarket of Rockridge, this 148-unit community was originally built in 1981 but recently underwent two multimillion-dollar renovations which have made it a top competitor in the area. The first renovation in 2013 converted 30 assisted living units into a dedicated memory care wing, and the second renovation in 2016 (at $4.8 million) saw updates made to the interior and exterior common areas, amenities, units and landscaping. On top of that,... Read More »
HJ Sims Finances Delray Beach Development
A senior living development in Delray Beach, Florida is inching towards opening its doors and just received $51.45 million in bonds to cover lease-up costs and other cash needs, arranged by HJ Sims. The mix of tax-exempt and taxable bonds, including $11.6 million in subordinate tax-exempt bonds, were sold to institutional investors and to Sim’s investors. They featured step-coupons, which would have an initial lower coupon during construction and lease-up and increase to a more traditional, non-rated coupon after that period. Sims also structured an optimal redemption window starting in five years with a mandatory tender of 11 years from closing. The project is sponsor Tuscan Garden’s... Read More »

Mainstay Senior Living Expands North Georgia Presence
The original developer of a senior living community in Lawrenceville, Georgia was looking to move on to other development opportunities in North Georgia and hired Brad Clousing of Senior Living Investment Brokerage to exit the asset.

Also, between 2012 and 2013, it underwent a $1.0 million renovation that saw the addition of a new roof, entertainment room, gutters, updated landscaping, lighting and windows. Its license was updated from a personal care one to assisted living, too. Occupancy was... Read More »
