Five Facility Portfolio Finds New Operator in Northern California

Five Facility Portfolio Finds New Operator in Northern California

A portfolio of five skilled nursing facilities in northern California found a new operating tenant thanks to Nick Stahler of The Knapp-Stahler Group of Marcus & Millichap. Located around the Sacramento area, the facilities feature more than 300 beds and are owned by a private family office. They were originally leased to a regional skilled nursing operator, but that operator was primarily focused on the Southern California market.

At close, occupancy was 82% with a 28% quality mix. A new regional operator... Read More »
New SNF Sells in Texas

New SNF Sells in Texas

A brand-new skilled nursing facility changed hands in central Texas, with the help of Nick Stahler and Austin Diamond of The Knapp-Stahler Group at Marcus & Millichap.

Given its newer vintage and lack of new competition in the area, we imagine once stabilized, it could operate at a healthy margin. The facility is also enrolled in QIPP, which should help.  Another regional owner with a presence in the state bought the facility for $7.0 million,... Read More »
