Local Doctor Buys Rural Texas Assisted Living
Using his expertise in the Texas M&A market, Matthew Alley of Senior Living Investment Brokerage sold an assisted living community in rural east Texas for $2.8 million, or $56,000 per unit. Originally built in 1994, the 50-unit community is the only licensed assisted living property in Franklin County. It includes 68 licensed Type A beds, and at the time of marketing, it was about 58% occupied, generating about $50,000 annually in EBITDAR on over $840,000 in revenues. Its independent owner/operator was looking to exit the seniors housing industry, ultimately selling the community to a local doctor. That medical knowledge can’t hurt in turning the community around.

Ventas Reports Second Quarter Results
Ventas (VTR) was the first one out of the block to report second quarter earnings, and while the results were about as expected, on the seniors housing and care side the turnaround has still not arrived. In fact, the second quarter was disappointing but not unexpected, given all the quiet industry talk about census, margins and staffing costs. One caveat is that just four companies make up two-thirds of VTR’s seniors housing and care portfolio, and one can question whether they are representative of the industry. But since two of the four are Atria Senior Living and Sunrise Senior Living, we are not talking about the dregs of the sector. For the seniors housing operating portfolio (SHOP),... Read More »
Newmark Knight Frank Closes Refi
The Newmark Knight Frank (NKF) Seniors Housing team, led by David Fasano & Sarah Anderson, recently closed on a refinance for a 145-unit IL/AL/MC community located in Brown Deer, Wisconsin.

The relationship marked the first transaction between NPSL and the lender, and this was one of the first debt transactions that the NKF team has completed start to finish since joining NKF.

NHI Grows Its Colorado Portfolio
National Health Investors has added another property to its growing portfolio. Paying $7.6 million, or $149,000 per unit (including $100,000 of closing costs), the REIT acquired a 51-unit assisted living community in Pueblo, Colorado. Built in 1997 with an addition in 2008, the community was 96% occupied at the time of the sale. Cappella Living Solutions, which is owned by the not-for-profit Christian Living Communities and operates a portfolio of 26 communities, will take over the lease, under a 15-year term and an annual lease rate of 7.25%. The agreement included a CPI-based escalator with a floor of 2% beginning August 2020. NHI funded the deal with proceeds from its revolving credit... Read More »

After a recent expansion, a small assisted living community in Tremonton, Utah, is refinancing through Fannie Mae with the help of Brady Johnson, Andy Kitts and Heath Coryell of Hunt Real Estate Capital. Originally built in 1995, the 28-unit community was Utah-based SAL Management’s first acquisition, back in 2006. The company’s portfolio has now expanded beyond Utah to Arizona and Colorado, as well. At the Tremonton location, they recently opened 12 new units after completing an extensive renovation and expansion, which included updates to all areas of the building. With the project done, and the community stabilized, SAL obtained a $3.74 million refinance. Read More »

Soaring With Seniors
Think about the thrill for your residents, flying in the cockpit of a two-seat biplane, soaring above the land, and free of charge. Imagine you are 90 years old and living in a senior living community, and maybe a war veteran. Life may not be as exciting as it was, especially if you are not very mobile. But also imagine if, free of charge, you could spend 15 to 20 minutes flying around in a 1940’s-vintage biplane. That is the mission of Ageless Aviation Dreams, founded in 2011 by Darryl and Carol Fisher (Mission Senior Living). So far, they have completed 3,940 “missions” in 45 states for these deserving residents of your senior living communities, at no cost to you, other than getting... Read More »Schedule a demo
