Behavioral Skilled Nursing Facility Sells In Tucson

Behavioral Skilled Nursing Facility Sells In Tucson

A unique skilled nursing facility with a sizable behavioral health census sold in Tucson, Arizona, in a deal handled by Evans Senior Investments. Those behavioral beds proved to be quite the boon to cash flow, with their Medicaid rate nearing $300 per day. Apart from them, the facility had several areas to improve on, including its 71% census, 16% quality mix and operational capacity (just 211 of 240 total licensed beds were functional). Operated by Avalon Health Care Group, the 35-year old facility did have the advantage of being located 500 feet away from a 227-bed hospital. Its independent ownership group elected to sell to reinvest their capital. A Chicago-based owner/operator,... Read More »

Summer Sales at Senior Living Investment Brokerage

Senior Living Investment Brokerage ended July with two closings. First, a family owner that had operated a pair of Texas skilled nursing facilities for decades recently decided to sell to an independent owner/operator based in the Waco area for $9.35 million, or about $38,000 per bed. Built in 1978 and 1964, respectively, the 131-bed facility in Pasadena was 88% occupied while the 115-bed facility in Mineola was 78% occupied. Combined, the pair brought in approximately $460,000 in EBITDA on $11.95 million of revenues, so the buyer will look to improve that 4% operating margin. Matthew Alley of Senior Living Investment Brokerage handled the transaction. Mr. Punzel also closed the sale (with... Read More »
