Ray Giannini and John Klement of Marcus & Millichap helped the private owner of an assisted living community in Wisconsin exit the industry with its sale. Located minutes from downtown Milwaukee, Wisconsin in the town of Oak Creek, this 20-year old community has 36 private units, each with a bathroom and kitchenette. Occupancy was nearly full but mostly featured Wisconsin waiver residents, limiting the community’s potential cash flow. Aided by $500,000 of seller financing with a slightly-above-conventional interest rate, the buyer, a Chicago-based land entity, paid $3.8 million, or $105,600 per unit, at an approximate 9% cap rate.

A Sign To Come?

A Sign To Come?

by | Dec 12, 2018 7:00 am | Acquisitions

Here’s something we may be hearing more of next year. Increased competition, lowered census and staffing issues prompted one owner of an assisted living/personal care community in Southwest Pennsylvania to retire early from the business. Built in 1965 and renovated in 1997, the 58-unit community had a history of strong profits and high occupancy until 2015 when the aforementioned trifecta of issues hit the business. Working on behalf of the seller, Joe and Jim Knapp of Marcus & Millichap’s Knapp Group and Robert Villeneuve of M&M’s Washington, D.C. office found a buyer with experience in value-add projects in western Pennsylvania. They paid $3.6 million, or $62,000 per unit, in... Read More »
