KEENE, N.H. — HJ Sims has closed $93 million in tax-exempt bonds, which will be used toward the development of Hillside Village, a continuing care retirement community (CCRC) in Keene. The borrower, The Prospect-Woodward Home, is the nonprofit operator of an assisted living facility in Keene. The company recognized that there were no CCRCs in the area that would allow seniors to stay in Keene as they age. Eighty percent of the independent living apartments were already reserved at the time of bond closing. Prospect-Woodward expects to break ground this year on the 48-acre campus. New Hampshire Health and Education Facilities Authority issued the bonds. Sims immediately sold 20 percent of the bonds — $18 million — to individual investors. Sims created three series of Entrance Fee Principal Redemption Bonds to capture initial entrance fees from new residents and to reduce debt quickly. The lender expects the program to allow Prospect-Woodward to redeem 40 percent of the bonds within three years.

AURORA, COLO. — Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors has arranged the sale of Sable Care and Rehabilitation Center, a 120-bed skilled nursing facility in the Denver suburb of Aurora, for $5.4 million. A publicly traded REIT based in California sold the property to a New York-based investor. The seller was looking to divest a non-core asset as a value-add opportunity. The new owner will lease to facility to a prominent regional operator with an existing footprint in Colorado. The facility is located near the University of Colorado Hospital and CU Anschutz Medical Campus. At the time the property was put on the market, the trailing 12-month operational performance yielded $6 million in total revenue with overall occupancy at 56 percent. The outgoing operator took over the building at a time of operational challenges, but was able to change course towards regulatory compliance and improved operational performance.
