Owning an assisted living facility (ALF) or skilled nursing facility (SNF) comes with a lot of decisions—but figuring out when to sell is one of the biggest. The right timing can help you maximize value, ensure a smooth transition for residents and staff, and protect the legacy you’ve built.
- Think About Your Personal Goals
Are you ready to retire, scale back your daily involvement, or move on to something new? Your personal goals play a significant role in determining whether now is the right time to sell.
- Look at Your Financial Performance
Strong occupancy, healthy net operating income (NOI), and manageable debt make your facility attractive to buyers and can boost your sale price. Even if your facility is struggling financially, there are buyers out there who see the potential and are willing to pay a fair price.
- Consider the Market
High demand for senior housing and creative financing options can make a big difference. Knowing your local market trends helps you decide the best time to sell.
- Review of Operational Challenges
Staffing issues, rising costs, or increased regulatory pressures might be signs that it’s time to hand over operations rather than continue managing day-to-day challenges.
