ESCONDIDO, Calif. — Blueprint Healthcare Real Estate Advisors has arranged the sale of Las Villas Del Norte, a 185-unit assisted living and memory care community in Escondido. A publicly traded REIT sold the property for an undisclosed price. The buyer was a locally based and privately held real estate investment firm with experience repurposing senior care properties. Constructed in 1986 with an expansion completed in 2006, Las Villas Del Norte is situated in an affluent submarket north of San Diego.
