Merrill Commercial Real Estate Handles Two-Community Deal in California

Merrill Commercial Real Estate Handles Two-Community Deal in California

It took over a year, but Tyler Merrill of Merrill Commercial Real Estate successfully closed the sale of two assisted living communities in Redding, California.

Merrill Commercial Real Estate Sells Nevada Memory Care

Merrill Commercial Real Estate Sells Nevada Memory Care

Tyler Merrill of Merrill Commercial Real Estate sold a 44-unit memory care community in Sparks, Nevada, representing a single-asset owner/operator in the disposition.

However, it appears they are exiting at the right time, and at a good price. Mr. Merrill sold the community for $10 million, or $227,300 per unit. Built in 1996, it features 77 beds in 44 units, and was 86% occupied with a 100% private pay census. The seller had put $750,000 of capex into it in 2015, which almost certainly helped boost the price. A Northwest-based operator looking to expand their... Read More »
