Blueprint Handles Record Sale In Oregon
We just recorded the highest-priced single-asset seniors housing sale in the state of Oregon, in a transaction handled by Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors’ Dan Mahoney, Jacob Gehl and Blake Bozett. The target is located in Portland and was originally developed in 1992 by the current seller. Also renovated in 2000, the community features 286 units of independent living, assisted living and memory care. Integral Senior Living has managed it since 2011, and managed it well, apparently, as it was 94% occupied with a 100% private pay census. We have also estimated it operated at a roughly 45% margin on approximately $13 million of in-place revenues. Strategic Student & Senior... Read More »

Both were originally developed by CA Ventures in partnership with another institutional equity partner and Senior Lifestyle Corporation.... Read More »
Luxury Senior Living In Salt Lake City
A luxury assisted living/memory care community recently opened in Salt Lake City, Utah, and hopes to stand out among its competitors for not only its care, but its look too. Interior designer, studioSIX5, and architect AJC Architects designed the 148-unit community with an eye for its surrounding environment in view of the Wasatch Range, with many resident rooms designed to highlight the natural beauty. The community cost approximately $35 million, or $236,500 per unit, to develop, which is nearly equal to the average construction cost for the region of $233,700 per unit. We have not observed much seniors housing construction in the Salt Lake City MSA, at least on a relative basis, but... Read More »
Welcome, Wardman Group
A boutique real estate investment firm, having just been founded in 2016, is making its first acquisition in seniors housing.
