The transaction consisted of about $62.3 million in taxable and tax-exempt bonds under the 142(d) bond program administered by BB&T Capital Markets.... Read More »

First, in Dayton, Ohio, Connor Doherty and Michael Segal sold an 87-bed skilled nursing facility that came with a lot of upside. Situated in a desirable, urban infill location adjacent to a local medical center, the facility maintained a five-star rating from CMS. Pretty good. But there were restrictive admissions criteria and a vacant floor that meant census was below market. Taking on the challenge (for an undisclosed price) will be a newly-formed, opportunistic...
