  • Investor Group Buys Naples Community

    A group of investors picked up a value-add seniors housing community in Naples, Florida. Built in 1999, North Haven Senior Living features 132 units of assisted living and memory care. It appears that Brookdale Senior Living previously operated the community, which showed very well and did not require much in terms of capex. We understand that... Read More »

    by | May 7, 2026 4:03 pm | Acquisitions

    Brookdale Senior Living has been going through some major changes in the last year, so naturally its recovery could be a little uneven, with the hope of more long-term growth and stability. They have a new CEO, COO and a new operational structure, in addition to exiting more than 100 communities in the last year. But the mixed bag of results can... Read More »

The Senior Care Pricing Disconnect

by | Nov 11, 2015 8:32 am | 60 Seconds, Opinion

The public equity market for senior care operating companies and REITs is getting slammed, but the private investment market remains strong. The pricing disconnect continues. Public equity investors continue to slam the senior care operating companies and health care REITs. All one has to do is look at what has happened to Kindred Healthcare and Genesis Health this past week or two, when both companies dropped to new lows and have not yet recovered. Fears of reimbursement pressure, fears of OIG investigations, fears of staffing costs. All have some degree of merit, but it seems like an overreaction to me. Just look at the private market, where both acquisition pricing and demand remain... Read More »

REIT Shares Under Pressure Again

by | May 5, 2015 2:35 pm | 60 Seconds, Opinion

Rising interest rates are sending health care REIT shares down, but will it last? The timing could not be worse. What am I talking about?

Easy for me to say. But with the recent rise in rates,... Read More »
