Senators Warren and Markey’s report is in, and try counting how many times the word “federal” was used, as in there are no “federal” reporting requirements, data should be regularly reported to the “federal” government, assisted living...

Evans Senior Investments Shows Variety In Latest Closings

Evans Senior Investments displayed some variety in its two latest transactions. First, the firm closed the sale of a 30-unit/60-bed memory care community located about five miles southwest of Las Vegas, Nevada.

Occupancy ultimately suffered, falling to 70% early this summer, and the community was losing money. But for Pacifica, there is plenty of upside. Rents are currently below market rates at nearby competitors, and with nearly all semi-private units... Read More »
