Summit Healthcare REIT Makes Large Portfolio Acquisition

by | Jan 6, 2022 4:48 pm | Acquisitions

Summit Healthcare REIT is entering Georgia with the acquisition of eight skilled nursing facilities across the state. Purchased for $130 million, or $157,000 per bed, the portfolio comprises 826 licensed beds. That per-bed value is certainly high for SNFs, but these days with so many buyers on the hunt for few facilities, we’ve seen bids creep up and up. A wholly-owned subsidiary of Summit is purchasing the portfolio, which will be leased back to the existing operator on a triple net basis. The undisclosed operator has a strong existing presence in the Peach State. CIBC U.S. and Oxford Finance funded the debt on the transaction. With this deal and another acquisition closed in 2021, Summit... Read More »
