Money Money Money.....Money and more Money

After attending this year's NIC Conference, it became abundantly clear that money (both debt and equity) are chasing nursing home and seniors housing deals.  Everywhere you turned, there were lenders and equity players looking for opportunities to place capital.  Times are good, real good, but how long will it last?  That is the question.  There are rumblings about HUD, Fannie, and Freddie reaching their limit.  This should provide opportunities for other capital in the space.

I know I am always beating my SELL drum, but really, if you have ever thought about selling, now is THE time.  Please contact Ryan Saul if you would like to know what your nursing home or seniors housing property is worth.  I am always available to put together a confidential analysis.

Matthew Alley and Jeff Binder Sell Two Idaho Assisted Living Communities

Jeff Binder and Matt Alley sold two Assisted Living Communities in Northern Idaho located approximately 30 miles from each other. The properties totaled 90 units and are newer (2005/2006), purpose built facilities aligned in a pod format on attractively landscaped sites. A Receiver was appointed for the properties in July 2012. There were two major challenges regarding the census once the Receiver was appointed: 1. "No further placement" order until September 2012, 2. The buildings did not meet bathroom/resident ratio. Significant capital was invested to bring the properties to code. The 2006 site is four 15 unit one and two story buildings on 1.43 acres totaling 34,700 square feet. The 2005 site is two 15 unit one and two story buildings on 0.82 acres totaling 18,300 square feet. At the time of sale, the census had risen to 71%. The Buyer is a national owner/operator looking to expand their presence in Idaho. The properties sold for close to $80,000/unit.
