Strawberry Fields Grows in Des Plaines

Strawberry Fields REIT continues to grow its skilled nursing holdings, and did so in a big way this month, by acquiring a large 231-bed SNF in Des Plaines, Illinois. That facility has had a somewhat checkered past. Originally built in 1975, it was acquired by a Catholic not-for-profit hospital and skilled nursing provider in May 2011 for $22 million, or $115,200 per operating bed, at a 9.5% cap rate.

First-year rent is expected to be around $2.4 million. Read More »
