Do I need a specialized broker to sell my assisted living facility?
Direct answer
No law requires a specialized broker, but senior housing is an operating business with licensing, staffing and reimbursement issues that generalist real estate brokers rarely handle. A specialist knows how buyers value occupancy and NOI, which buyers are active, and how to manage the change-of-ownership process.
What to know
Generalists often price on real estate alone, which can leave value on the table or derail due diligence.
Specialists maintain networks of qualified senior housing buyers and protect confidentiality.
Licensing and change-of-ownership experience helps the deal close on time.
