Minnesota Assisted Living Community Gets A New Neighbor

Minnesota Assisted Living Community Gets A New Neighbor

In a deal that was anything but ordinary, Ray Giannini of Marcus & Millichap sold an assisted living community plus an adjacent vacant skilled nursing facility in Owatonna, Minnesota for about $2.95 million, or $59,100 per unit. Steele County previously owned both of the buildings and brought in Benedictine Health System (BHS) to manage them. Built in 2002, the 50-unit AL community was operating decently with a nearly full, all-private pay census and a margin around 15% on $1.5 million of revenues. Since it was county-owned, we imagine there is a lot of room for improvement in controlling expenses. However, at the SNF, BHS had gradually transferred the beds out of the 1970s-era... Read More »

Hurricane-Damaged SNF Sells in Georgia

Despite a wing still not operational since Hurricane Matthew in 2017, a skilled nursing facility in Midway, Georgia changed from one not-for-profit’s hands to another’s. Magnolia Manors, a Methodist-affiliated operator of eight other locations throughout south Georgia, acquired the 150-bed facility for a sum of $6.85 million, or $45,600 per bed. Mike Pardoll of Marcus & Millichap handled the deal. Originally built in 1972 with an addition in 1982, the facility, which is licensed for 169 beds, was 75% occupied during the marketing period, with a 15% Medicare and 9% private pay/managed care census, with the remainder made up of Medicaid patients. About $7.8 million of bond debt remains... Read More »

Pardoll Closes Another Personal Care Sale in Atlanta Area

Marcus & Millichap’s Mike Pardoll sold yet another small personal care community in Georgia to Affinity Living Group, following his sales last month of a 23-unit property in Bainbridge (for $1.2 million, or $52,200 per unit) and a 36-unit community in Vidalia (for $1.3 million, or $36,100 per unit).

Built in 1990, the property (which was operated by Sunrise Senior Living until 2010) was struggling with occupancy at 67% and had negative cash flow at the time of the sale on under $600,000 of revenues. Rents averaged about $2,800 per month, which was low... Read More »
