Healthcare Trust Buys in San Diego

It’s been a while since we’ve seen Healthcare Trust Inc. as a buyer in the seniors housing market.

There are 53 assisted living and 38 memory care units (64 beds) in the two-story building, which was built in 2015 on a 4.3-acre site. The quality of the building is apparently quite high, and the community was over 90% occupied. Rick Swartz, Jay Wagner, Aaron Rosenzweig, Dan Baker, Tim Hosmer and Bailey Nygard made up the Cushman & Wakefield team that served as exclusive advisor to the seller, Torrey Pines Development Group.
