What types of senior housing does Haven transact in Utah?+
Haven works across all Utah senior housing asset types licensed as Assisted Living Facility — Type I and Type II by Utah Department of Health (UDOH). We handle single assets, small portfolios, and multi-facility transactions across all major Utah markets.
Does Haven list off-market Utah properties?+
Yes. A significant portion of Haven's Utah deal flow is off-market — sourced through our operator relationships and advisor network. Registered buyers get early access before public listing. Sign up for our free monthly listing alerts to hear about new opportunities as they become available.
What is the licensing process for senior housing in Utah?+
Utah licenses Assisted Living Facilities in two tiers — Type I (personal care, no nursing services) and Type II (personal care plus nursing services) — through UDOH. Buyers must determine the appropriate license type before applying for COO approval. Haven guides buyers through Utah's tiered system. Utah Department of Health (UDOH) change-of-ownership processing typically takes 60–90 days after a complete application.
What cap rates should I expect in Utah?+
Utah stabilized AL assets typically trade at 6–9% cap rates. Salt Lake City and St. George premium communities trend toward 5.5–7.5%; Provo, Ogden, and value-add assets trade at 7.5–10%. Haven provides free preliminary valuations.
How long does a Utah senior housing transaction take?+
Utah Department of Health (UDOH) change-of-ownership processing typically takes 60–90 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 Utah acquisition?+
Yes. Haven's Capital Solutions team provides lender introductions for Utah 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 Utah's specific regulatory and market context.
