Rising interest rates have not affected the market for seniors housing and care assets and demand remains extremely high across all quality and property types, according to new acquisition data from Irving Levin Associates (Norwalk, Conn.). The number of publicly announced seniors housing and care acquisitions in the fourth quarter of 2018 topped 100 transactions for the third quarter in a row, with 103 total transactions announced. The fourth-quarter acquisition volume helped propel 2018 into the record books with 426 publicly announced acquisitions in the seniors housing and care sectors. The activity continues to be almost evenly split between skilled nursing and seniors housing. Levin offers a free white paper, “Seniors Housing & Health Care M&A in the 21st Century.”
