Ensign Makes Another Arizona Acquisition

by | Jun 8, 2018 7:02 am | Acquisitions

Despite its stated strategy to own more of the real estate in its portfolio of over 230 healthcare properties, The Ensign Group shunned its recent practice and acquired just the operations of a 140-bed skilled nursing facility in Sun City West, Arizona. Reporting 87% occupancy at the time of the sale, the facility will be operated by Ensign’s Arizona-based subsidiary, Bandera Healthcare, while Ensign acquired the operations subject to a long-term lease.
