Lancaster Pollard Keeps the HUD Closings Coming

Lancaster Pollard Mortgage Company just closed its 16th HUD financing since the government shutdown ended in January.

The latest transaction featured a $17.3 million loan closed on behalf of Tryko Partners for its 171-bed skilled nursing facility in Brick, New Jersey.

Tryko Partners Picks Up HCR ManorCare Facility

Tryko Partners Picks Up HCR ManorCare Facility

Quality Care Properties divested one of its HCR ManorCare-operated skilled nursing facilities in New Jersey, with Tryko Partners stepping in as the buyer. Built in 1974, the 106-bed facility is located in New Providence (Newark MSA), which will complement Tryko’s existing strong presence in central and northern New Jersey. The facility is located close to six area hospitals, but currently just two providers refer about 90% of admitted patients. With services that include post-acute, short-term rehab and long-term residential care, it also maintains a five-star rating from CMS. Even with the already-high rating, Tryko will still immediately launch into a multi-million-dollar upgrade of the... Read More »

After Five Years of Ownership, Tryko Partners Refinances PA SNF

Five years after acquiring a 97-bed skilled nursing facility in Easton, Pennsylvania, Tryko Partners is turning to Housing & Healthcare Finance (HHC Finance) to refinance it through HUD. Originally built in 1960, the facility still had a lot of upside back when it was sold by Signature HealthCARE in 2013.

Occupancy was 84% at the time, as well. However, it was an orphan property for the seller five years ago. The operating margin was just around 4% on $8.55 million of revenues at the time of the sale, but Tryko... Read More »
40-Year Old SNFs: Obsolete or an Opportunity?

40-Year Old SNFs: Obsolete or an Opportunity?

The aging of the skilled nursing industry is becoming a growing concern for investors in that space. Facilities built 40 years ago and over comprise a significant portion of the skilled nursing beds in the country, and many believe they are outdated and would require too much capex to modernize and attract the Medicare and private pay populations. Nevertheless, plenty of buyers still see opportunity. But what do they see that others don’t? That is the question we tried to answer in our webinar entitled, “The 40-Year Old SNF: Part II,” a sequel to our 2016 discussion. Our Editor, Steve Monroe, was the moderator, joined by Alan Plush of HealthTrust, Chad Buchanan of Tryko Partners and Andrew... Read More »
