Greystone Closes Two Freddie Mac Financings

Greystone Closes Two Freddie Mac Financings

by | Oct 31, 2019 3:24 pm | Financings

Greystone ended October with a couple of varied transactions. First, Cary Tremper facilitated a Freddie Mac $43.98 million loan to support the acquisition of a 207-unit senior living community in Daly City, California (San Francisco MSA). The loan was originated on behalf of the borrower, Senior Resource Group and Welltower. Built between 2008 and 2011, the community has been managed by SRG since 2012. It offers independent living and assisted living units. Then, if seniors housing has an affordability problem, then maybe age-restricted manufactured housing communities are part of the solution. To that end, Greystone arranged a $33.7 million Freddie Mac loan to refinance one of those... Read More »

I know as one gets older, confusion can become more common. And today, I am a little confused about the state of the senior living industry. -Sponsored by The Senior Care Acquisition Reports   NIC MAP has reported that maybe we have hit bottom in the third quarter, and that new construction starts are starting to decline, even though new openings remain high. Assisted living occupancy, while posting a small sequential increase, still remains far too low to get excited, but bottoming out would be welcome news. Then, Ventas reported its third quarter earnings, painting a not-so-pretty picture. Their RIDEA operating portfolio has not been performing well, posting a 5.0% decline in... Read More »

Dissecting the Jump in Average Assisted Living Values

by | Oct 30, 2019 5:51 am | Statistics

It’s amazing the difference that one deal can make. We are talking about Welltower’s $1.76 billion sale of its entire Benchmark Senior Living portfolio to KKR and its impact on the average private per assisted living unit sold in the most recent four quarters. That sale, which came in at $425,400 per unit across the 48 properties, pushed the sector’s weighted average up to $252,900 per unit, a 23% increase from the most recent four-quarter period ($205,900 per unit) and 36% from calendar year 2018 ($186,400 per unit), according to The Seniors Housing Acquisition & Investment Report. We should note that this average is likely to change as more deals from 2019 float to the surface, and... Read More »

Genesis HealthCare Continues Restructuring

by | Oct 17, 2019 3:16 pm | Acquisitions

Genesis HealthCare announced additional changes to its capital structure and leased interests in skilled nursing facilities, all for the better. Genesis has partnered with a private investor to purchase 18 nursing facilities previously leased from Welltower and Second Spring Healthcare Investments. Genesis will have a 30% equity stake in these 18 facilities, and lease them from the joint venture entity, but with a big difference.

In addition, Genesis has a fixed-price purchase option to acquire the real estate of these 18... Read More »
