$CTRE CareTrust REIT acquires Pacific Northwest portfolio for ~
$146M
CareTrust REIT announced that, together with a joint venture partner, it has acquired a portfolio of skilled nursing facilities located in the Pacific Northwest for a total purchase price of approximately
$146M, inclusive of transaction costs. The portfolio consists of 10 facilities comprising 911 licensed beds located across Idaho, Oregon and Washington. The acquisition was completed through a joint venture arrangement entered into between CareTrust and a large third-party healthcare real estate owner.
At closing, CareTrust provided common equity and preferred equity investments totaling approximately
$141M at an initial contractual yield on its combined investment in the joint venture of approximately 9.0%. The total investment amount was funded using a combination of cash on hand and a draw from the company's revolving credit line, which brought the outstanding balance on the revolver to approximately
$475M.
The joint venture has leased the facilities to two existing tenants who each have strong rent coverage on existing leased CareTrust properties and deep operating experience pursuant to new 15-year triple-net leases that include extension options and annual escalators.
