Bob Gaines of Colliers International headed to Maryland’s Eastern Shore to sell a 32-bed assisted living/memory care community.

Colliers Closes South Carolina Sale

Marcus Van Ameringen of Colliers International handled the sale of a well-operating senior care facility on the outskirts of Columbia, South Carolina.

The previous owner regularly invested capex in the property and clearly managed it well, as evidenced by a Deficiency Free Survey 2016 and four-star rating from CMS. The implementation of PDPM should boost the SNF operations too, when it goes into effect next month. Mainstay Senior Living was the buyer, paying $2.4 million, or $37,500 per bed, at an 11.5% cap rate. They plan to add a dedicated post-acute rehabilitation unit, upgrade... Read More »
