HCR ManorCare Continues to Fight
We are not sure what HCR ManorCare’s end game is in its battle with landlord Quality Care Properties, which owns the vast majority of its properties. HCRMC recently filed a motion in court to dismiss certain claims in QCP’s receivership complaint. We are not sure what leg they have to stand on. The provider is so far behind on its contractual rent payments that it is a wonder that QCP has not done what other REITs have done when their tenants have not been able to pay the rent. On January 25th, HCRMC did not pay the reduced rent of $14 million that was due. The past dues are simply piling up, and while we understand there is a difficult operating environment, it does not mean you can... Read More »
Senturian Senior Housing Brokerage Sells Alabama Assisted Living Community
Watson McCollister of Senturian Senior Housing Brokerage handled the sale of a 56-unit assisted living community in Anniston, Alabama. Built in 2000 on 24 acres, this community includes 32 assisted living and 24 memory care units. It was owned by a local operator and operated at a 26% margin on approximately $2.46 million of gross revenues. Occupancy was 91% when the initial offer was accepted, but shot up to 100% by closing, with NOI substantially improving as well. With the help of an $830,000 mezzanine loan provided by United Community Bank and arranged by Contemporary Healthcare Capital, the out-of-state buyer (based in Charleston, South Carolina) purchased the community for $7.86...

Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors Hires CEO
Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors had some big news this week. Founded in 2013 by Ben Firestone, Jacob Gehl and Chris Hyldahl, the brokerage company just named Torey Riso as its first President and CEO. Riso brings 25 years of real estate and senior care experience to the young firm. He was part of the team that founded Care Investment Trust in 2007, where he served as President and CEO from 2009 until its sale late last year for $425 million. At the time of the sale, Care Investment Trust had investments in 42 senior living communities in 11 states. Blueprint has grown dramatically in its first three years, and we suspect that Riso’s experience and contacts will help bring in some... Read More »
The Avery Company Announces Pair Of Acquisitions
The Avery Company kicked off their 2018 in a strong way, closing two transactions in succession for clients in Tennessee and Connecticut. Jolyon Wilde first sold two senior living buildings located across the street from each other in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. Both built in 2001, there was a 68-unit assisted living community with 90% occupancy and a 26-unit memory care community just 75% occupied. Both were 100% private pay and operated at a combined 22% margin on approximately $4.03 million of revenues. A local doctor decided to sell the communities to Virginia-based Inspirit Senior Living for $12.45 million, or $132,450 per unit, with a 7.1% cap rate. Mr. Wilde was then joined by Larry...

Senior Living Investment Brokerage Makes It Happen In Mississippi
After developing and stabilizing its 40-unit assisted living community in Richland, Mississippi, a local owner/operator decided to exit the asset with the help of Daniel Geraghty and Bradley Clousing of Senior Living Investment Brokerage. The seller built the community in 2014 and licensed it for 55 beds in a mix of private and semi-private units. Occupancy was 91%, and it operated at a solid 34% margin. The incoming owner/operator, based in Tennessee, will undoubtedly look to add value to the property as it grows its existing portfolio and economies of scale in the state. They acquired the Richland community for $4 million, or $100,000 per unit, with an 8.75% cap rate. Read More »

NorthMarq Capital Finances Washington Seniors Housing Community’s Past and Future
NorthMarq Capital continued its long-standing relationship with a 130-unit seniors housing community in Lynnwood, Washington, arranging Freddie Mac financing for the new owner. The community was developed by a joint venture between Living Care Lifestyles (the operator) and Morningside Development Group in late 2013 thanks to a $17.19 million four-year construction loan arranged by Stuart Oswald of NorthMarq. It included 85 independent/assisted living and 45 memory care units in a three-story building in the affluent Seattle suburb of Lynnwood. Lease-up went quickly, and in the middle of that process, ownership obtained a cash-out refinance totaling $32.5 million with a three-year term and... Read More »
HFF Sells Austin-Area Post-Acute Care Facility
The team at HFF, including David Fasano, Ryan Maconachy and Chad Lavender, represented Meridian Realty Advisors in their sale of a 140-bed post-acute care facility in Bee Cave, Texas (Austin MSA). Built in 2013, which makes the property new among other post-acute care facilities, the facility was the only one of its kind in a four-mile radius, but was just 68% occupied. It also recently housed some 90 skilled nursing and assisted living patients from Rockport, TX, which was evacuated due to Hurricane Harvey. In fact, the 18 assisted living residents stayed in the temporarily outfitted therapy gym for one night before being transferred to another facility. The other 72 skilled nursing... Read More »
