Blueprint Handles Sentara Healthcare’s SNF Exit

Blueprint Handles Sentara Healthcare’s SNF Exit

We covered Virginia-based hospital system Sentara Healthcare’s exit from the skilled nursing business in September and recently learned of Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors’ involvement in the deal.

They were mostly built in the late-1980s and early 1990s, with one opening more recently in 2017. They range in size from 84 beds to 216... Read More »

Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors handled a couple of sales on opposite ends of the East Coast. First, in Connecticut, Steve Thomes and Chris Hyldahl sold two skilled nursing facilities that were acquired by a private investment group based in New York City as part of a 10-SNF portfolio in late 2017. Combining for 197 licensed beds, one facility is located in the Hartford MSA, and the other is in Fairfield County near the New York border.   Older facilities, they were occupied in the mid-70s when the marketing process started in 2019, and it’s fair to say the pandemic and ensuing lockdowns took a further toll on census.
