Greystone Takes Over Rosewood Care Centers Portfolio
Greystone Healthcare Management Corp. formally took over ownership of a portfolio of 13 senior care facilities in Illinois and Missouri, and entered two new states as a result. Before February 3, the skilled nursing owner/operator managed over 30 long-term care and rehab facilities, all in Florida. But it has expanded into two new states in a big way. Comprising 1,662 total beds, there are 11 skilled nursing facilities and one supportive living community in Illinois, and one SNF in St. Louis, Missouri, all of which have been renamed. They were formerly operated by Rosewood Care Centers but were taken over by HUD after Rosewood defaulted on $146 million in FHA-backed loans. The default made... Read More »
PGIM Simplifies Capital Stack at NOLA Facility
Refinancing a complicated capital stack, PGIM Real Estate Finance secured a $10.7 million HUD loan for a 112-bed skilled nursing facility in New Orleans, Louisiana. The facility was built by the not-for-profit St. Margaret’s Foundation in 2013 on the site of the former Lindy Boggs Medical Center, which was devastated by Hurricane Katrina in 2005. Its $33 million construction was initially funded using New Market Tax Credits, Historic Tax Credits, OCD Loan Funds, FEMA grant money, a bank loan and sponsor equity. PGIM simplified things and significantly reduced the amount of debt with the HUD loan. Located within five miles of seven acute-care hospitals, the facility features 100 units in... Read More »

Newmark Sells Sarasota Senior Living Community
The Newmark Knight Frank team of Ryan Maconachy, Chad Lavender, David Fasano and Ross Sanders handled the sale of an assisted living community in southwest Florida. Featuring 108 assisted living and 39 memory care units, the community was built in 1994 in downtown Sarasota. More than 20 years ago, the property sold to Merrill Gardens for nearly $13 million, or $75,000 per unit. But back then, it featured 170 independent living and assisted living units. So, we assume a number of units have been combined to make larger ones, in addition to converting some to memory care. Although it is situated in the heart of Sarasota just blocks away from Sarasota Bay and two miles from St. Armands... Read More »
Ohio Owner/Operator Exits the Senior Care Industry
After more than 30 years in the business, a local owner/operator in Ohio exited the senior care industry with the help of Connor Doherty and Ryan Kelly of Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors. Located in the northeast part of the state, the property features 152 total units, with 99 for skilled nursing and 53 for assisted living. It was built in 1976, with a major renovation in 2002. Operations had been declining during the due diligence period, with occupancy falling 15% from the time it was put under LOI. So, Blueprint worked with the incoming owner, a private equity owner/operator with extensive operating experience in the local market, to limit those declines. In the end, the... Read More »
