Griffin-American Health Care REIT II (formerly known as Grubb & Ellis) announced this week it has acquired 10 skilled nursing facilities and an additional medical office building for a total of $174.3 million. The properties span five southern states and comprise a total of 1,364 beds added to the healthcare REIT’s portfolio.
The skilled nursing facilities range in size from 20,000 square feet to 77,000 square feet for a total of 454,000 square feet. The 10 facilities are master leased through 2027 by affiliates of Wellington Healthcare Services LP, the company reported.
“These properties are each an ideal fit for the clinical healthcare acquisition strategy of Griffin-American Healthcare REIT II,” said Danny Prosky, president and chief operating officer. “We focus on institutional-grade healthcare facilities that are accretive to our bottom line, that support our investor distribution, and that are likely to add the highest value to our nationwide portfolio. These acquisitions meet each of those requirements.”
The properties are located in Texas, Georgia, Tennessee, Louisiana and Alabama. The REIT financed the acquisition through the assumption of nine separate U.S. Housing and Urban Development loans totaling $70.5 million, the assumption of a $12.7 million loan with Capital Funding Group, $38.4 million in borrowings under its line of credit with Bank of America, N.A., $20.0 million in borrowings under its line of credit with KeyBank, as well as net cash proceeds received from its offering.
