Despite many believing we have already reached the peak, pricing-wise, in the seniors housing M&A market, it is still a very good time to sell. That is at least what SRP Medical was banking on when it sold its newly built 108-unit assisted living/memory care community to a joint venture between Harrison Street Real Estate Capital and Bridgewood Property Company. Opened in 2013, the community features 60 AL units and 48 MC units and is located near The Woodlands, Texas, in the town of Spring, an area which has seen plenty of seniors housing construction recently. A change in operators a year after opening caused some marketing issues, which contributed to bringing occupancy down to 50%.... Read More »
