HJ Sims Refinances Benedictine Health System

by | Sep 20, 2021 10:04 am | Financings

Benedictine Health System, a Minnesota-based not-for-profit organization affiliated with the Catholic church, recently obtained $132.4 million in financing arranged by HJ Sims. Historically, the organization and its affiliates were financed on a standalone basis, resulting in 36 separate series of outstanding debt for 19 different borrowers. Plus, the series were held by eight different banks or servicers with disparate terms, covenants and reporting requirements.

Minnesota Assisted Living Community Gets A New Neighbor

Minnesota Assisted Living Community Gets A New Neighbor

In a deal that was anything but ordinary, Ray Giannini of Marcus & Millichap sold an assisted living community plus an adjacent vacant skilled nursing facility in Owatonna, Minnesota for about $2.95 million, or $59,100 per unit.

Built in 2002, the 50-unit AL community was operating decently with a nearly full, all-private pay census and a margin around 15% on $1.5 million of revenues. Since it was county-owned, we imagine there is a lot of room for improvement in controlling expenses. However, at the SNF, BHS had gradually transferred the beds out of the 1970s-era... Read More »

Two skilled nursing facilities that are struggling with census sold in rural Minnesota thanks to Ray Giannini of Marcus & Millichap.

They were not well-occupied, at just 50.5% and 64%, and cash flow was also limited. Monarch Healthcare Management purchased the facilities from Benedictine Health System for $6.5 million, or $37,600 per bed. Read More »
