• The Saga of Genesis HealthCare Continues

    Genesis HealthCare was once one of the largest and most successful skilled nursing companies. But it grew too quickly, made some bad investments over the years (did we mention the billion-dollar merger with The MultiCare Companies?), and it always played the leverage game, whether with leases or debt, and usually both. Last summer, it filed for... Read More »

Confluent Senior Living Sells, and Grows

Confluent Senior Living Sells, and Grows

Confluent Senior Living announced the sale of three of its senior living communities in Iowa, Oregon and New Mexico, hiring CBRE to close the deal. All three communities were, and will continue to be, operated by MorningStar Senior Living. The West Des Moines, Iowa property opened in March 2018 with 85 assisted living and memory care units, and the Beaverton, Oregon (Portland MSA) property opened later that year in November with 104 AL and MC units. In January 2019, the Santa Fe, New Mexico community was completed with 85 AL/MC units. All three were still in lease-up, but with no change in operator, that should continue unabated. Just last month, Confluent also sold its 66-unit assisted... Read More »

They sold for an average price per unit of about $411,000. All of the properties, except for one, were in different stages of initial lease-up, making that... Read More »

Christian Living Communities Adds to Colorado Portfolio

Christian Living Communities, a Denver-based not-for-profit owner/operator of senior living communities across the country, added a 26th property to its portfolio. Located in Grand Junction, Colorado (just east of the Utah border), the community features 40 assisted living and 26 memory care units. Assisted living rents range from $4,450 a month for a studio to nearly $6,600 per month for a two-bedroom unit, while monthly memory care rates started at $6,620 and went as high as $7,030. Additional care fees can also add $535 to $1,535 a month to the bill. That’s a pretty high price point for the area. Confluent Senior Living developed the property in 2017 at a cost around $12.5 million, or... Read More »
