Dwight Capital Closes Cash-Out Loan
Dwight Capital arranged a cash-out refinance for the owners of a 106-bed skilled nursing facility in Pikeville, Kentucky, paying off an acquisition loan that Dwight financed in 2018. Built in 1970 less than a mile from the 250-bed Pikeville Medical Center, the facility was previously owned by a publicly traded REIT and operated by Signature HealthCARE. It was well-maintained and over 90% occupied, but escalating liability insurance costs caused cash flow problems.

The facility also was subject to a ground lease owned by a group of local investors. Blueprint... Read More »

Blueprint Sells Successful SNF in Maryland
Despite strong operations, a Maryland skilled nursing facility was deemed to be non-core and slated for sale in a transaction led by Steve Thomes and Joshua Salzman of Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors. Located just outside of Baltimore in a sought-after market, the 63-bed/34-unit facility was acquired by an experienced skilled nursing investor and operator looking to grow their presence in the state. It was approximately 76% occupied with a 25% quality mix and reported about $5.34 million in revenues. The purchase price came to $6 million, or $100,000 per licensed bed, a high value that reflects both the strong performance and desirable location. Read More »
Blueprint’s Deal Bonanza
Was it just us, or did it seem like every time we left a meeting at the NIC Conference in Chicago last week, there was another Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors announcement in our inbox? We exaggerate…a little. The firm announced four deals during the conference, starting with one that we had learned about last month that saw Regional Health Properties sell four skilled nursing facilities in Alabama, Georgia and Oklahoma to affiliates of MED Healthcare Partners for $28.5 million. The existing operators were retained at all locations. Brooks Blackmon, Trent Gherardini and Ben Firestone led the way on the deal. Then, in Inman, South Carolina, Blueprint sold two skilled nursing... Read More »Schedule a demo
