The SLIB Team Sells AL/MC in Oregon

The SLIB Team Sells AL/MC in Oregon

There has been a lot of talk about pricing, both during the pandemic and as we are coming out of it. Is it a buyer’s market, or a seller’s market? Should you be conservative, or aggressive and take advantage of the current positive momentum? How about being just right?  In a transaction that just closed on June 1, Jason Punzel, Vince Viverito and Brad Goodsell of Senior Living Investment Brokerage represented the regional owner/operator of a 95-unit assisted living and memory care community located in Oregon. Built in 1997 with a renovation in 2015, it is licensed for 107 beds and has an occupancy rate of 92%. Yes, through the pandemic they mostly kept COVID out and the... Read More »
California Dreamin’

California Dreamin’

In a different sort of transaction than Senior Living Investment Brokerage’s recent Oregon deal, the team of Brad Goodsell, Jason Punzel and Vince Viverito handled the sale of a value-add property in California. Located about 12 miles southeast of Los Angeles, this 77-unit assisted living and memory care community was built in 1984 with a renovation in 2017. Occupancy was closer to where the rest of the industry has been near the end of the pandemic at 76%.  A local owner/operator paid $7.7 million, or an even $100,000 per unit (certainly makes the math easy), with an in-place cap rate of about 7.7%. With the low occupancy, the operating margin is just under 19%, which certainly... Read More »

Senior Living Investment Brokerage Handles Active Adult Deal

Their ears must have been burning, because after we discussed the rise in M&A activity in the active adult/55+ market, Matthew Alley and Bradley Clousing of Senior Living Investment Brokerage announced the sale of an 81-unit community in Granbury, Texas. Developed in stages from 2018 to 2020 by a local mom & pop, it was already fully occupied with a wait list by the end of 2020. Talk about strong demand!
