  • Berkadia Handles Detroit-Area Deal

    Berkadia closed the sale of Oakleigh of Macomb, an 85-unit assisted living/memory care community in Macomb, Michigan (Detroit MSA). Built in 2019, the community has 55 assisted living and 30 memory care units. It was 91% occupied, so given its vintage and performance, we imagine it attracted significant investor interest. Berkadia represented the... Read More »

Blueprint Continues Its Streak In Kansas

Blueprint Continues Its Streak In Kansas

Continuing its busy season, Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors announced another closing in the Midwest, following six other announced August transactions in the states of Ohio, Michigan and Kansas. In this latest closing, the team of Ben Firestone, Jacob Gehl and Michael Segal went back to Kansas to sell a couple of small assisted living/memory care communities in the southeastern part of the state. Built in the 1990s, the properties combined for 49 units and are the county’s only licensed providers of AL services. They were deemed to be non-core by the public REIT and private equity firm joint venture owners, following the JV’s portfolio acquisition of a number of AL/MC properties... Read More »

California-Based Summit Healthcare REIT Heads Northeast

Summit Healthcare REIT just expanded its holdings in the Northeast, adding nine skilled nursing facilities with 1,285 licensed beds. Along with joint venture partner Fantasia Investment III LLC, a U.S.-based affiliate of Fantasia Holdings Group Co., Ltd., Summit acquired an interest in these facilities out of receivership. They were previously owned by a Colorado-based private investment group, but the existing operator will stay on to manage the portfolio. Quality of care is high, with each facility reporting at least a four-star rating from CMS. The joint venture ended up paying $60 million, or $46,700 per bed. Steve Thomes, Chris Hyldahl, and Gideon Orion of Blueprint Healthcare Real... Read More »

Two More Sales From Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors

Plugging along this summer with a healthy number of transactions closed so far has been the team at Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors. After announcing five deals since the start of June, the firm closed two more this August in the Midwest. First, to Ohio, where the team of Connor Doherty and Brian Payant represented an Ohio-based owner/operator in its sale of two skilled nursing facilities for $16.75 million, or $66,500 per bed. Both assets were cash flow-neutral and could obviously improve their operations. That will be the job of the buyer, another Ohio-based owner/operator. Blueprint continued their work over the border in Michigan, with Ben Firestone and Michael Segal selling... Read More »

Blueprint Closes Mid-Summer Flurry Of Deals

Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors certainly has kept busy this summer, announcing four transactions in the last week. Connor Doherty closed two SNF transactions for Blueprint, both located in Ohio. The larger deal consisted of two facilities and 252 total beds, selling for a combined $16.75 million, or $66,470 per bed. The regional owner/operator seller had decided to strategically divest these assets as part of their long-term strategy and handed over ownership to an Ohio-focused operator with experience in operational turnarounds. They will have to use that experience on these two facilities. Built in 1975, with regular updates, the Cincinnati facility was just 66% occupied and... Read More »
Aurora Boreali-SNF

Aurora Boreali-SNF

Recent operational difficulties certainly affected the value of a recently sold skilled nursing facility in Aurora, Colorado, but it is certainly on the upswing. Built in 1973, this 120-bed facility was traded back and forth in the 1990s (selling for $4.85 million in 1995 and for $6.62 million in 1998) and eventually became part of a California-based publicly traded REIT’s portfolio. It recently ran into some operational difficulties (including a stint on the special facility focus list), prompting the REIT to hire a new operator and get the facility back on track towards regulatory compliance and improved operations. The operator had succeeded in turning around the property, but the REIT... Read More »
