Multifamily

WESTERVILLE, OHIO — Ziegler has arranged $59.9 million in bond financing for Ohio Living, a Westerville-based nonprofit operator of 12 seniors housing communities in Ohio. Proceeds of the bonds will be used to refund existing bank debt, terminate an interest rate swap agreement, fund a debt-service reserve fund equal to approximately one year of debt service, fund approximately $3 million of capital expenditures and pay certain costs of issuance associated with the financing. The bonds consist of tax-exempt, fixed-rate serial and term bonds with an 18-year final maturity. The financing includes a three-year interest-only period with annual principal amortization starting in 2026. Ohio Living decided to utilize fixed-rate bonds to refund a portion of its bank capital following the turbulence experienced in early 2023 in the bank credit markets.

FORT COLLINS, COLO. — Evans Senior Investments (ESI) has arranged the sale of a skilled nursing facility in Fort Collins for $7.6 million. The seller was an independent owner-operator. Although the number of beds was not released, the per-bed price of $79,166 equates to 96 beds. Initially built in 1968, the seller owned and operated the community for nearly two decades, achieving a four-star CMS rating. However, being its only skilled nursing facility, the company faced the challenges of today’s operating environment and lacked economies of scale. Upon marketing, the facility was 68 percent occupied, generating over $7.5 million in annual revenue, leading to negative net operating income of over $500,000. ESI was able to showcase the possibility for a new ownership group to align the community’s census with the averages of competitors in the area, as well as the potential to tap into the robust network of hospitals in Fort Collins. “Evans Senior Investments was able to showcase Colorado’s recent Medicaid rate increase, which was projected to add over $450,000 in revenue beginning in July 2023,” says Hank Fuller, senior associate at ESI.  The buyer was a West Coast-based operator with an existing presence in the state of Colorado.

GREAT FALLS, MONT. — Community Preservation Partners (CPP) has acquired two affordable seniors housing communities in Great Falls: Sunshine Village and Broadview Manor East & West. CPP plans to renovate both properties, and has partnered with The Hampstead Cos., which will be the owner and co-developer. This is the second project closing in Montana for CPP and Hampstead together, totaling three communities in the area. CPP and Hampstead’s total development investment is approximately $23.1 million, which includes the purchase price of $10.8 million and an estimated renovation cost of $72,850 per unit.
