After Lackluster 2023, Seniors Housing M&A Activity Is Poised to Rebound in 2024

by Jeff Shaw

At first blush, 2023 looks like a bad year for seniors housing property sales. Total transaction volume fell 23 percent to $10.6 billion, the sector’s lowest mark in over a decade, according to data from MSCI Real Assets. “I’m not surprised to see transaction volume down from 2022,” says Kelly Sheehy, senior managing director of Artemis Real Estate Partners. “The combined impact of declining asset values, scarcity of financing for new acquisitions and lender extensions for underperforming assets has kept sellers from listing assets and have prevented levered buyers from acquiring.” MSCI’s data is based on independent reports of property and portfolio sales of $2.5 million and above. The numbers include both private-pay seniors housing and skilled nursing care, but not active adult properties. The factors limiting seniors housing transaction volume have affected all real estate asset classes. As far as property acquisitions go, seniors housing was one of the most consistent property sectors in the United States in 2023. Commercial real estate sales across the country were down 51 percent last year, and the two hardest hit sectors were office (sales fell 56 percent) and multifamily (sales fell 61 percent), according to MSCI. What’s more, seniors housing was the …

Reno’s Growth Bolsters the Multifamily Market

by Jeff Shaw

— By Benjamin Galles, senior vice president, CBRE — The outlook for the Reno multifamily market in 2024 is similar to how the year panned out in 2023. There is significant interest in Reno from investors across asset types, earning us a ranking on Business Insider’s list of the top 15 hottest real estate markets for the next decade.  Northern Nevada’s continued job growth has piqued investors’ interest in owning multifamily properties within the state. This growth will continue as existing companies expand their presence in the market, proving their commitment to the city and people of Northern Nevada.   The current elevated construction costs and construction loan costs could pose a roadblock to developers meeting the anticipated demand in the next 12 to 24 months. That being said, there are currently 4,700 apartment units under construction in the market. This will likely be absorbed by people moving into Reno from outside the region.  Unlike other markets we’ve seen across the country, very few loans in our region have maturities over the next 12 months. This means seller motivation in Reno remains low to moderate when it comes to offloading properties. The lack of debt events where owners will be pressed into a …
