ESI Negotiates $51.5M Sale of Seven-Property Skilled Nursing Portfolio in Colorado

by Amy Works September 8, 2022

COLORADO — Evans Senior Investments (ESI) has arranged the sale of seven skilled nursing facilities in Southwest Colorado for $51.5 million, or approximately $92,000 per bed. An owner-operator sold the 558-bed portfolio to an East Coast-based owner-operator looking to expand its reach in the West. The properties were built between 1957 and 2017. Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, the portfolio was 77 percent occupied and produced nearly $6.2 million in annual net operating income. Throughout the pandemic, the portfolio’s occupancy decreased and at the time of marketing was only 65 percent occupied. “The competitive bidding arena and strong price per bed for a rural portfolio whose census and cash flow were well below stabilized levels showcases the willingness of buyers and lenders continuing to work together to get deals finished with the headwinds that they continue to face,” says Brendan DeSilvia, associate at ESI.

InterFace Panel: Multifamily Managers Brace for Increases in Labor Costs

by Taylor Williams September 8, 2022

By Taylor Williams The multifamily management industry has been beset by labor shortages for years, which has in turn prompted the rise of numerous technological platforms designed to streamline, automate and simplify daily work. But the business of running apartment communities carries an inherent and irrevocable human element, and the cost of acquiring and maintaining that service is about to go up. As an industry, multifamily management is hardly alone on this front. Businesses in countless sectors across the country are deadlocked in labor battles. While overall unemployment remains low at 3.7 percent, at 62.4 percent, the labor force participation rate remains about 100 basis points below its pre-pandemic mark, according to data from the Federal Reserve. In addition, according to the Society for Human Resource Management, resignations hit record highs in 2021, with some 4 million Americans quitting their jobs every month. With much of the labor supply in flux and potentially looking to shift careers, the advantage shifts to deep-pocketed, well-capitalized employers who can not only offer higher salaries, but also greater workplace flexibility. As such, multifamily management firms will likely be competing for talent among one another in 2023, as well as sparring with recruiters from completely …
