Juniper Communities Shifts Focus from Florida

Juniper Communities Shifts Focus from Florida

by | Oct 9, 2019 6:01 am | Acquisitions

Juniper Communities has completely exited the state of Florida, with Bradley Clousing and Jeff Binder of Senior Living Investment Brokerage facilitating the final sale. With the transaction, the assisted living/memory care provider will now focus on its established Northeast and Colorado markets, where it has eight communities in Pennsylvania, two in New Jersey and five in the Centennial State. The Naples community was originally built in 2000, which in the heavily developed southwestern Florida market is certainly on the older side. Age isn’t everything, but it does usually affect the rents you can charge, which has a cascading effect if any fixed or variable costs were to suddenly shoot... Read More »

New Jersey-based Juniper Communities added another Pennsylvania senior living property to its portfolio with the acquisition of a 103-unit assisted living/memory care community in Chestnut Hill (Philadelphia MSA).

Carlyle Senior Living acquired the community in 2006 for $8 million, or $77,700 per unit. How times have changed. We’re unsure... Read More »

Bensalem Blues

by | Dec 1, 2016 8:37 pm | Acquisitions

There is some work to be done for the new owner of an entrance-fee CCRC in Bensalem, Pennsylvania. Juniper Communities (headed by CEO Lynne Katzmann) purchased the community for $13.65 million, or $38,343 per unit, which is well off its 2005 (yes, 2005) price of $17.35 million, or $48,464 per unit. Back then, the unit breakdown was very similar to today’s, which is currently 279 independent living units, 60 assisted living units and 17 skilled nursing beds. Plus it was operating at a 16% margin with a 95% occupancy rate. While the community’s current operations were not disclosed, we have to assume they have fallen off some given the 21% decline in price. Built in 1981 with expansions in... Read More »
