What is the licensing process for senior housing in Ohio?+
Ohio licenses both Residential Care Facilities (RCFs) and Assisted Living Facilities through ODH based on the level of care provided. The COO process includes application, background checks, and a facility survey. Haven manages all ODH requirements to protect occupancy through the transition. Ohio Department of Health (ODH) change-of-ownership processing typically takes 75–105 days after a complete application.
What cap rates should I expect in Ohio?+
Ohio stabilized senior housing assets typically trade at 7–9% cap rates. Columbus and Cleveland Clinic-adjacent premium communities trend toward 6.5–8%; Dayton, Toledo, and secondary Ohio markets trade at 8–10.5%. Haven provides free preliminary valuations.
How long does a Ohio senior housing transaction take?+
Ohio Department of Health (ODH) change-of-ownership processing typically takes 75–105 days after a complete application. Most senior housing sales close in 90–150 days from engagement. The full change-of-ownership process, from application to new license, typically takes 90–180 days, so it starts early in the sale.
Can Haven help with financing for a Ohio acquisition?+
Yes. Haven's Capital Solutions team provides lender introductions for Ohio senior housing acquisitions — including bridge financing, conventional commercial loans, and HUD-insured loans for qualified larger facilities. We prepare lender-ready financial packages that account for Ohio's specific regulatory and market context.
