Second-Generation Owner Exits Skilled Nursing Business
Bradley Clousing, Daniel Geraghty and Toby Siefert of Senior Living Investment Brokerage helped a second-generation owner of a skilled nursing facility in Northport, Alabama (Tuscaloosa MSA) exit their only asset and the industry altogether with the facility’s sale. Built in stages from 1973 to 2008, the facility earned a good reputation in the local market and was 90% occupied with a 46% quality mix.

Their final property was a 30-unit assisted living community in the town of Clarksville in northwest Arkansas. Built in 1996 and 2008, it converted from all-independent living to assisted living in early 2017 to become the only ALF in the county. Each unit was recently renovated, and rates were also increased. With 97% occupancy and an operating margin above 35%, we imagine the new owner won’t have to change much. That buyer was a Mississippi-based regional owner/operator who paid $3.25... Read More »
