Ryan Saul Handles $63,000,000 Indiana/Iowa Transaction

Ryan Saul recently sold 19 Skilled Nursing Facilities of which 17 were in Indiana and 2 were in Iowa. The total portfolio consisted of 1,159 beds with an overall occupancy of 80% with approximately 12% Medicare and 10% Private Pay. A couple of the communities included assisted living but were higher acuity than normal. The Seller began accumulating his portfolio in 2000 adding a couple of buildings each year through acquisitions. He specialized in smaller, middle market properties that deliver quality care in addition to providing quality Rehab/Medicare services. The owner decided to sell the portfolio to start the transition out of seniors housing. As part of the transaction, the Seller granted the Buyer the option to assume/purchase an additional 12 facilities (prior to 2020) that are currently leased from a public REIT. The Buyer is a Midwest owner/operator that purchased the portfolio using a 1031 exchange related to the sale of a portion of their existing portfolio. The Buyer will absorb the operations into their existing Midwest portfolio of nursing homes. For additional information, please contact Ryan Saul at ryansaul@slibinc.com or 630/858-2501.

Patrick Byrne and Bradley Clousing Sell Alabama Assisted Living and Skilled Nursing Community

Brad Clousing and Patrick Byrne recently sold a 125 bed skilled nursing facility and a 30 unit assisted living facility in Northwest Alabama. The property has been family owned and operated since it opened and was currently being operated by the owner's second generation. This is the only skilled nursing asset in the family's portfolio. The community was built in stages beginning in 1976 with additions in 1991, 1993 and 1998. A majority of the 74,140 square foot property(s) was renovated in 2013. The community is a CMS 5-Star rated facility with over 30% Medicare mix. In the Fall of 2013, the city experienced a Legionella event which impacted the nursing/assisted living facility. Management implemented a self imposed admissions ban affecting the census and expenses. Despite these challenges, Senior Living Investment Brokerage, Inc. was able to procure five qualified offers on the property in two weeks. The buyer is a New York based investment group and has entered into a lease with a national operator. The financing was provided by CapitalSource. For additional information, please contact Pat Byrne at byrne@slibinc.com or Brad Clousing at clousing@slibinc.com
