A Southern California-based regional operator is heading north, to Petaluma (about 40 miles northwest of San Francisco), to acquire and take over management of a 40-unit memory care community.

The incoming owner/operator, based in Tennessee, will undoubtedly look to add value to the property as it grows its existing portfolio and economies of scale in the state. They acquired the Richland community for $4 million, or $100,000 per unit, with an 8.75% cap rate. Read More »
