"Find me a lender that says they don't have any distress in their portfolio, and I'll show you a liar." . . . lender discussions while hunting for NPLs (lender's words, not mine). Chucked my crystal ball out the window a while ago.
Installation #1 – Asset Mgmt Advisory (In response to many questions recently about what we do.) Problem: There was a flood of owners who developed/acquired senior housing in the late 20-teens (or started devs that opened during COVID) who were not product specialists. The…
Inspired by Barrett Linburg's post. There is a niche cabal of senior housing people on this platform that represent operators, investor, lenders, and service providers. I present to you the list of some of the toughest real estateurs on X. This is separate from the private list…
Macro pressures have driven valuations of seniors housing down over the last four years. This creates opportunity: 1) for acquisition of properties at a reset basis and 2) for owners to realign with the correct operator on their existing properties.
Meet Sophos at the NIC next month in Dallas. Or . . . if you're not at the NIC, let's connect before to hear what you'd want to know if you were attending.
@trdny: Axos Bank claims default on 132-unit Van Nuys senior complex Without calling out specific parties, this story is representative of a trend that banks should have defaulted 1-2 years ago but covered their eyes and are now paying a price. I have spoken with dozens of…
NHI is allocating additional asset management resources to challenged assets/operators to drive performance. ^This is what non-professional owners need to do more of.
We are seeing assets bucketed into four categories of lending potential - or rather, the peaks & troughs of a truncated bimodal distribution. Zone 1 - DSCR so low that the lender is wiped out. Example: Coastal CA asset purchased for $40MM two years ago. Senior/mezz stack at…

Operators and owners are waking up today asking what they will do differently this week than last to move the needle. Seniors housing is a challenge of constant improvement. I've been working on a technology matrix highlighting the best-in-class hard/soft tech solutions in…

"You could have Carnegie hall, but if you can’t carry a tune in a bucket it just won’t work." - A lender today, on the status of operators mismatched with seniors housing assets. Working to get this lender on Twitter . . . decades in multiple roles at the apex of seniors…
@srhousingnews announced Revel (IL developer/operator with 14 locations) is shifting from a rental to a “membership” model. They are pricing in four levels of ancillary fees, but the biggest headline is the “Revel Travel Club” which lets residents stay at other Revel communities.…
Couple years ago I invested in a hardware/software company for senior living. I understand it, and also knew I could advise & help with intros Really starting to hit momentum and some really impactful data is coming back, helping to drive NOI! Now we are working a potential…
"I knew from the age of 6 that I wanted to work in seniors housing" . . . said nobody ever. Okay okay, there are a handful of industry vets' adultish kids who can't shed a last name and we know who they are. They're the minority. Ask most people in the seniors housing crowd how…
Welcoming my friend Andrew Montgomery, founder at @MontgomeryIG_SL to the Twittersphere. For the subniche on Twitter in seniors housing, you should give him a follow and schedule time at the next @Natl_Inv_Ctr And for those who are seniors-curious, jump aboard. Welcome Andrew!
New followers, and I've been quiet for a while. A bit about me: I'm an operator-first capital allocator in seniors housing at @SophosEquities. We're focused on acquiring newer distressed/stalled assets - COVID was rough on this asset class.
@DekelCapital Managing Principal @shlomironen and other experts talked with @MHNonline about the outlook for senior housing in 2023. buff.ly/3ZvmD27

Scott's a great follow if you want to glean insights about senior housing. It's like listening to the Odd Lots podcast but every episode is just this industry
Same issue in senior housing. Operators historically charge a mgmt fee of 5% on gross revenue. This for a business that has a 20-30% profit margin (maybe), so expenses MATTER. No alignment of interest, no incentive to manage expenses. (This is also why my fee to change…

Anyone coming to NIC in Dallas next week? I’m speaking about Middle Market Assisted Living at 11 am on the 6th. Swing by and say hello. Middle Market to me is assisted living that costs all in less than $3,750 per month. Before are my notes on how to make it happen.

@SophosEquities @DennyPregent This is a great slide!
I wrongly assumed things would be better by now. I didn’t we expect capital markets to freeze up for #seniorshousing like they have. Fundamentals are better but a lot of capital (debt & equity) is paused/stepped away. Will be a great year to get deals done, if you can…
One year ago today…now add interest rates to the equation. Long road ahead for many owner/operators. Banks have been patient for almost 2 years and some are starting to put pressure on borrowers. Stimulus was underwhelming for the industry and gone.
