Cushman & Wakefield Assists in Assisted Living Disposition

by | Mar 1, 2019 7:01 am | Acquisitions

As part of a larger effort to exit several non-core assets, an institutional owner decided to sell its 112-unit assisted living/memory care in Mount Vernon, Illinois (about 80 miles southeast of St. Louis), with the help of the Richard Swartz, Jay Wagner, Jim Dooley and Sam Dylag of Cushman & Wakefield. Built in phases from 2001 to 2009 and substantially renovated in 2017, the community struggled against newer competitors in the area and their rent discounting tactics. As a result, occupancy fell to just 60% in 2018. Compass Senior Living stepped in to acquire the asset for $6 million, or $53,600 per unit, leaving plenty of wiggle room for an operational turnaround. From the sound of... Read More »

Heavenrich Closes Sale To Summit Healthcare REIT

by | Jul 21, 2017 7:02 am | Acquisitions

Brian Clark of Heavenrich & Company just sold a 77-unit assisted living/memory care community in Chandler, Arizona (Phoenix MSA) for $13.4 million, or about $174,000 per unit. Mr. Clark represented the stand-alone not-for-profit seller, Pennington Gardens, in the community’s sale to Summit Healthcare REIT, a public non-traded REIT. Built in 2000, the community was 87% occupied at the time of the sale. We imagine operations could improve somewhat, as despite its good location and age, it sold for nearly $40,000 per unit less than the national average price of $217,000 per unit, for the 12 months ended June 30, 2017. Summit leased the community to Compass Senior Living, which already... Read More »

Recap with MidCap

Recap with MidCap

by | Jan 11, 2017 8:31 am | Financings

A few years after acquiring an independent living community in Payson, Arizona (located in the middle of the Tonto National Forest), Compass Senior Living is refinancing the property, with the help of MidCap Financial. Originally built in 2006 by a not-for-profit operator, this 50-unit community was eventually sold to Compass in 2014. Since then, occupancy and operating margin have improved, and the property’s value, thus, increased. The $4.5 million floating rate loan came with a three-year term and not only refinanced existing debt, but also recaptured equity that was originally committed to the 2014 acquisition. Read More »
