Sabra Health Care REIT Buys Again
Fresh off the heels of its $3.0 billion merger with Care Capital Properties in August and its $430 million joint venture acquisition of most of Enlivant’s assisted living properties for an investment of $371 million, Sabra Health Care REIT announced a $430 million acquisition of 24 skilled nursing facilities with 2,216 beds, or a price of $194,000 per bed. That price will certainly help bolster what has been a mostly down year for SNF pricing, where we have seen more below-average facilities sold than in the previous two years. But this portfolio is certainly not average, with a 92% occupancy rate and a 59% skilled mix, which is huge for a portfolio of this size. In addition, 21 of the...

Sabra Health Care REIT has entered into an agreement to invest in a 49% interest in a joint venture that will own 183 senior living properties operated by Enlivant with the remaining 51% held by TPG Real Estate, which currently owns 100%. They have valued the transaction at $1.62 billion, or $195,600 per unit, with Sabra’s equity investment coming to $371 million. In 2013, TPG bought the former Assisted Living Concepts (ALC) for $458.5 million, or about $58,000 per owned unit, when occupancy had dropped to 60% after the company decided to get out of the Medicaid business. TPG changed the name to Enlivant, partly because there had been a few too many scandals associated with the previous... Read More »
Enlivant Expands In Midwest
Enlivant expanded its presence in the Midwest with the acquisition of four senior living communities in Indiana (3) and Iowa (1). Ben Firestone and Michael Segal of Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors represented the publicly traded REIT in its strategic exit of the assets. A national operator (which we believe to be Senior Lifestyle Corporation) also handed over the operations to the buyer, Enlivant. Built in the late 1990s, the four assisted living/memory care communities range in size from 35 units to 62 units, totaling 175 units. And although they were nearly all private pay, each community could improve their occupancy. That will be Enlivant’s task, which already has an existing... Read More »Brookdale divests, big
We reported back in July that Enlivant was the rumored buyer of 44 assisted living/memory care communities in 12 states that Brookdale Senior Living was looking to sell. On September 15, it was announced that Enlivant was indeed the buyer, together with its PE backer TPG, except that the number of communities had increased to 48 in 14 states. This deal represents a nearly 40% increase in Enlivant’s portfolio, assuming all communities close. Sixteen of the transactions have already closed, and the remaining 32 are expected to be effective over the new few months. Read More »Schedule a demo
