Drever gets its pipeline off the ground

We wrote earlier this year of Drever Capital Management’s seniors housing ambitions in both the acquisition and development markets. The company, which has only recently shifted its focus from multifamily to seniors housing, had already made its first acquisition in 2012, purchasing a 124-unit independent living community in Lexington, South Carolina with just 50% occupancy.

This isn’t the first foray into seniors housing world for Drever, which in 2012 purchased a 4-year old independent living community with 124 units in Lexington, South Carolina when the community was 50%...
