Grubb & Ellis Healthcare REIT II Acquires $75 Million Skilled Nursing Facility Portfolio in Philadelphia
PHILADELPHIA, July 7, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Grubb & Ellis Healthcare REIT II, Inc. today announced that it has acquired a five-building portfolio of skilled nursing facilities located throughout Philadelphia. The $75 million purchase closed on June 30, 2011.
The portfolio totals approximately 392,000-square-feet and 1,200 patient beds. Since 2001, more than $33 million in capital improvements have been completed throughout the portfolio, which is now leased to Mid-Atlantic Health Care, LLC through June 2026 with three five-year renewal options and one 59-month renewal option. Under the terms of the bond net lease, Mid-Atlantic is responsible for all portfolio operational and maintenance expenses.
"Skilled nursing facilities comprise a significant portion of the Grubb & Ellis Healthcare REIT II portfolio because they serve a growing segment of our population and there is a fairly constrained supply," said Danny Prosky, president and chief operating officer. "As a result of this acquisition, we are now one of the largest owners of skilled nursing facilities in Philadelphia."
