Stabilized Seniors Housing Deal Closes in San Antonio
A well-occupied seniors housing community in San Antonio, Texas, found a new owner thanks to Evans Senior Investments. The Class-A community was built in 2017 with 42 assisted living and 21 memory care units. Featuring plentiful amenities, it was 95% occupied with a 100% private pay census at the time of marketing. Additionally, in January 2022, the operator, Sodalis Senior Living, implemented a 4% rate increase for all current residents, and successfully implemented another lease renewal increase of 6% in January of 2023. There were several compelling offers for the seller, but Sodalis ended up as the buyer. The purchase price was not disclosed. Read More »

AdventHealth Exits the SNF Market

The portfolio also boasted high referral volume, quality payor mix and high overall census, and... Read More »
Midwest Owner/Operator Adds to Ohio Portfolio
A Midwest-based regional owner/operator decided to add to its existing Cleveland-area portfolio with the acquisition of The Landing of Stow in Stow, Ohio. Built in 2008, the community features 61 assisted living and 20 memory care units on over eight acres. Its previous owner chose to divest the asset to focus attention on communities that more closely align with its current footprint.

Bradley Clousing, Dan Geraghty and Ryan Saul of Senior Living Investment Brokerage handled the transaction. Read More »
Texas Senior Care Campus Changes Hands
Daniel Morris of Plains Commercial sold Country Village, a large senior care campus in Angleton, Texas. The seller was a long time owner/operator who was looking to retire.

60 Seconds with Swett: The Persistence of Higher Capital Costs
After the Fed held interest rates steady following 10 consecutive increases but left the door open for potentially two additional increases this year, you can’t help but think, what has gone as planned, or as predicted, in the last several years? Very little, unfortunately. Inflation has persisted in the economy, and rates will have to remain elevated for longer than earlier projections. Sounds a little familiar to the overly optimistic predictions of a seniors housing occupancy and margin recovery, post-pandemic, which is taking longer to materialize, and may never happen in many markets. We’re just saying that a little more conservatism may be needed in people’s projections or proformas... Read More »
