HCR ManorCare Exits Wisconsin Market

HCR ManorCare Exits Wisconsin Market

Ryan Saul and Toby Siefert of Senior Living Investment Brokerage have sold HCR ManorCare’s (now ProMedica Senior Care) last skilled nursing facility in the state of Wisconsin. The decision to sell came back in the summer of 2019, when the property was originally marketed. A buyer was found, and the property put under LOI, but the operating partner could not get comfortable with the deal.   So, the process started again, and the building went under LOI again in the spring of 2020 with a buyer group looking to grow its already strong presence in Wisconsin. The pandemic hit, and the building suffered from a COVID outbreak, but the parties involved remained patient and stuck to the original... Read More »
SLIB Handles Oregon Memory Care Sale

SLIB Handles Oregon Memory Care Sale

An Oregon-based senior living operator is leaning into the COVID crisis by acquiring a 29-unit memory care community in Portland and temporarily converting it to a COVID recovery facility for the state. We imagine the rates for taking care of COVID patients are much higher than traditional SNF Medicare rates, so it could be a very profitable operation.  Originally built in 1999 and remodeled in 2013, the community features 55 beds in the 29 units. It is located in a high traffic corridor of Portland and had historically enjoyed high occupancy. But census recently dropped to 71%. Cash flow was also dropping from around $580,000 from January to June 2020 (annualized) on over $3.22... Read More »
