Another Rural SNF Owner on the Way Out
It’s getting tougher and tougher for operators of rural skilled nursing facilities, particularly those single-asset owners. It’s a more complex and expensive business to operate these days, and with lengths of stays dwindling and acuities rising, it’s not getting any simpler. There were a lot of these deals this year, and we can’t blame any of these owners for exiting the industry altogether. One such transaction saw a not-for-profit board made up of local community members sell their only senior care campus in Marshall, Illinois (just over the border from Terre Haute, Indiana). Ryan Saul of Senior Living Investment Brokerage led the deal. Originally built in 1963 with additions and... Read More »
Cadence Living Expands in the Southeast
Cadence Living is certainly in growth mode. Earlier this year, the Scottsdale, Arizona-based operator announced a major expansion into its own state with the acquisition of land in the Phoenix suburb of Chandler to build a 191-unit, $46 million senior living development to join its three other brand-new or nearly-open communities in the area. Then, late last month, the operator announced that it teamed up with Sabra Health Care REIT to acquire an assisted living/memory care community in Poway, California (San Diego MSA). Now, Cadence Living was just selected as manager of seven assisted living/memory care communities and 402 total units across North Carolina, marking its entry in the... Read More »
Harborview Capital Partners Arranges HUD Refinances
Harborview Capital Partners, a commercial real estate finance, equity and advisory firm, recently announced a few HUD transactions. First, on behalf of a repeat client, Ephraim Kutner and Jonathan Kutner arranged a $7 million HUD loan for a 96-bed skilled nursing facility in Lake County, Illinois. The non-recourse loan came with a 35-year amortization schedule. Then, Harborview took advantage of the low-interest rate environment to refinance several previously placed HUD loans for their clients. The Harborview team achieved substantial rate reductions on loans exceeding $53 million for skilled nursing facilities totaling more than 450 beds in Illinois and New Jersey. That reduced annual...

SLIB Sells Atrium Health Portfolio
Ryan Saul and Jason Punzel of Senior Living Investment Brokerage sold a portfolio of four skilled nursing facilities and three assisted living communities in Wisconsin that were placed into receivership in September 2018 when their for-profit owner/operator, Atrium Health and Senior Living, was unable to fulfill its financial obligations. SLIB was hired by a Wisconsin-based receiver to solicit offers, and the court approved the sale to a regional based owner/operator headquartered in Illinois with other communities in Wisconsin and the Midwest.

Watermark Retirement Communities and JV Partner Acquire Two Assets
The joint venture between Titan Development and EverWest Real Estate Investors decided to sell two of its “Élan” assets in the Southwest. Each property features 77 assisted living and 36 memory care units, for a total of 220 units with 226 beds. The Austin, Texas property opened in late 2016, and just after, the Albuquerque community opened in early 2017 within the 60-acre Santa Monica Place master plan, which consists of 460 new, Class-A multifamily units (developed by Titan Development and Alliance Residential), a 130-unit independent living community operated by Resort Lifestyle Communities, and 150 new single family homes ranging in price from $275,000 to $400,000.

Assisted Community Sells on Maryland’s Eastern Shore
Bob Gaines of Colliers International headed to Maryland’s Eastern Shore to sell a 32-bed assisted living/memory care community. Located in the upscale 55+ beach community of Ocean Pines, which features amenities like an 18-hole golf course, two marinas, five swimming pools, a yacht club, country club, tennis club, hiking trails and, of course, beach access, this property was previously owned by a well-known local operator. Built in 2001, it consists of two 9,600-square foot buildings, each with 16 private units. Mr. Gaines sold the property to a private owner/operator intent on improving the operating margin, which was apparently already strong. The purchase price came to $5.5 million, or... Read More »
Helios Helps with Short-Term Refinance
With a maturing mortgage looming, the owners of a recently expanded assisted living/memory care community in Evansville, Indiana decided to refinance with the help of Mario Wilson and Bill Janis of Helios Healthcare Advisors. Originally purchased in 2012, the community underwent a complete renovation and re-opened in 2015 as Evansville’s first stand-alone memory care community. Shortly after lease-up, ownership decided to then add traditional assisted living units and services. However, their first mortgage was set to mature, and with an incomplete expansion project, the owners needed a short-term refinance solution. So, Helios arranged a 24-month, interest-only loan that took out the... Read More »Schedule a demo
