Vermont SNF portfolio sale
Evans Senior Investments (ESI) announced the sale of Suncrest Communities, a two-facility skilled nursing portfolio totaling 94 licensed beds in St. Albans, Vermont. ESI represented the independent owner-operator in the sale as the owner exited the senior living industry.
The portfolio sold for $10.5 million, or $111,702 per bed. It includes Franklin County Rehab Center, with 64 beds, and The Villa Rehab Center, with 30 beds.
Both communities benefitted from high barriers to entry, strong occupancy, limited direct competition within a 20-mile radius and a favorable local quality mix, ESI noted in its press release.
Facing an evolving regulatory environment and rising operating costs, the owner engaged ESI to manage the divestiture process. ESI analyzed the portfolio’s operations and identified $560,000 in immediate administrative expense savings available to a new owner.
ESI used the identified savings and a targeted marketing strategy to generate market interest and match the seller with a qualified buyer positioned to improve performance while supporting the owner’s transition out of the industry.
Rhode Island SNF sale
ESI also arranged the sale of an 80-bed skilled nursing facility in Rhode Island on behalf of a regional owner-operator. The sale marked the seller’s exit from the Rhode Island market.
ESI ran a competitive process that generated strong interest and multiple qualified offers. The buyer was a national owner-operator with an established presence in Rhode Island, further expanding its portfolio in the state.
