November’s M&A train keeps on rolling

There have been many big news stories so far since the start of November. Yes, outside of politics even.

We have to say that “tepid” is a relative term, but the reality is the average number of deals per month was 22.6 from June to October, compared with a 34.3 average in the second half of 2015 and a 30.4 average in the first five months of 2016. So far in November, we have already seen 18 transactions announced, and several of those have been big by 2016 standards, including two... Read More »

And despite having a stabilized occupancy at 90%, it was losing money. This was the only senior care asset of the owner, who decided to sell the facility when their operator tenant stopped paying rent and filed for bankruptcy. Enter Birchwood, which purchased the facility for $3.2 million, or $55,200 per bed/unit and brought in... Read More »
