Big Sky Secures $190M Financing For Ten Healthcare Properties Across Four States

JLL Capital Markets just announced that it has arranged approximately $190 million acquisition financing for ten healthcare properties totaling 857,779 square feet.

JLL worked on behalf of the borrower, Big Sky Medical Real Estate, in securing the five-year, floating-rate loan from a bank syndication led by Capital One Healthcare.

“Despite a challenging environment, our team and JLL persevered and successfully syndicated this loan to close out a successful 2022 for Big Sky’s partnership with GFH,” said Jason L. Signor, founder and CEO of Big Sky Medical. “We value our relationships with Capital One and the syndication group.”

The properties, which are collectively 87% occupied, serve a wide range of healthcare uses, including outpatient medical office buildings, ambulatory surgery centers, diagnostic imaging centers and more. The portfolio includes:

• Pyramids North, 9201 North Central Expressway, Dallas, Texas
• Pyramids South, 9101 North Central Expressway, Dallas, Texas
• Providence Park, 2501 Earl Rudder Freeway, College Station, Texas
• Greenpark MOB, 7515 Main St., Houston, Texas
• Peninsula Orthopedic Associates, 1675 Woodbrooke Dr., Salisbury, Maryland
• Tidal Health Cardiology, 400 Eastern Shore Dr., Salisbury, Maryland
• Pelican Professional Center, 42388 Pelican Professional Park, Hammond, Louisiana
• Texas A&M Health Science Center, 8441 Highway 47 West, College Station, Texas
• Peak Surgical Center, 610 North Coit Road, Richardson, Texas
• Valley Ortho & River Surgical Institute, 609 East Orangeburg Avenue, Modesto, California

JLL’s 2022 Healthcare and Medical Office Perspective highlights that patients are moving to sunbelt states and retirement markets such as Texas, Louisiana and California at exponential rates creating more demand for medical office buildings. As a result, medical office occupancy has ticked upwards as demand intensifies in a moderate construction environment which has gradually increased rents for the 11th quarter in a row.

The JLL Capital Markets team representing the borrower was led by Managing Directors Timothy Joyce and John Chun and Director Anthony Sardo.

“We are thrilled to have the opportunity to work with the Big Sky Medical team to help capitalize this outstanding portfolio of medical office assets in diverse, high growth markets. We would like to thank the lenders for stepping up in a challenging environment and providing a great debt package for these acquisitions,” says Joyce.

Remedy And MedProperties Form $350 Million Medical Office Building Joint Venture

Remedy Medical Properties and MedProperties Realty Advisors LLC formed a $350 million-plus joint venture to recapitalize an 11-state, 23-asset healthcare real estate portfolio totaling more than 1 million square feet owned by MedProperties.

Capital One provided senior debt for the transaction. Terms were not disclosed. The CBRE Healthcare & Life Sciences Capital Markets team marketed the portfolio.

The portfolio contains primarily medical office buildings as well as some post-acute facilities, including a rehabilitation hospital and ambulatory surgery center in Texas and rehabilitation hospital in Ohio. The properties are located in Texas (eight facilities), Florida (two), Pennsylvania (two),  Ohio (two), Kentucky (two) and one each in Tennessee, New York, North Carolina and Missouri.

The properties are located in some of the country’s top metropolitan areas and strategic, secondary markets. The assets are 94 percent occupied and 71 percent leased by high-caliber investment-grade tenants, including leading hospitals and health systems. One of the properties in the portfolio is Founders Square, a 35,000-square-foot medical office building in Naples, Fla., developed in 2020 by MedProperties and Catalyst Healthcare Real Estate.

Investment-grade healthcare tenants include: Baylor Scott & White, Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles, CommonSpirit, Rady Children’s Hospital, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, University of Southern California, UF (University of Florida) Health and WVU (West Virginia University) Medicine.

Deal Details

Darryl Freling, managing principal of Dallas-based MedProperties, said in a prepared statement his company aggregated a large number of assets through the years through its various funds and investment partnerships. In fall 2020, the firm’s leadership decided to offer a portfolio of about a two dozen of those properties as a recapitalization investment opportunity rather than an outright sale. He said the offering was taken to market in early 2021 and Remedy emerged as the joint venture partner in summer 2021.

The joint venture enabled Chicago-based Remedy, the nation’s largest owner of medical properties, to acquire a majority interest in another high-quality portfolio that complements its own holdings. Remedy’s properties total more than 26 million square feet across 42 states.

Joe Magliochetti, chief investment officer for Remedy, said in prepared remarks the portfolio is a logical addition to Remedy’s holdings and complements his company’s existing assets in terms of geography and tenancy.

The two companies have transacted smaller deals in the past and Remedy has made previous recapitalization deals with other private equity HRE investors. But this was the first time Remedy had done a transaction of this size with a private equity firm that was also another operator and competitor.

Earlier MOB Deals

In May, Remedy paid $55.2 million for Andover Medical Center, a 69,992-square-foot medical office property in the Boston suburb of Andover, Mass., owned by EverWest Real Estate Investors. The deal nearly doubled Remedy’s metro Boston footprint.

A month earlier, Remedy teamed with Kayne Real Estate Advisors in a joint venture to acquire Gresham Station Medical Plaza, a four-building, 100,419-square-foot medical office campus in Gresham, Ore. The joint venture paid $30.9 million for the Class B asset, according to public records. CommercialEdge data stated the previous owner was Stockdale Capital Partners, which had owned the property since 2017.

In one of its recent deals, MedProperties Fund III acquired a 67,060-square-foot multi-tenant medical office building in Glendale, Calif. The six-story facility is located on the campus of CommonSpirit-affiliated Glendale Memorial Hospital.

Dallas Investors Buy The Las Colinas Medical Building In Irving, Texas

Dallas-based Ridgeline Capital Partners has purchased a 70,000-square-foot medical office building in Irving.

The three-story building is at 6121 N. State Highway 161 and was acquired in a joint venture with Harrison Street, a Chicago-based investor. The building was constructed in 2019 to house primary care physicians.

The property is near Medical City Las Colinas hospital and is more than 80% leased to tenants including UT Southwestern Medical Center. An ambulatory surgery center will open in the building early next year.

“This is a medical campus with best-in-class tenants that provide a wide range of services for patients in one convenient location,” Jeff Axley, managing principal for Ridgeline, said in a statement. “The building was attractive to us due to its triple A credit-rated anchor tenant UT Southwestern Medical Center, Ambulatory Surgery Center and strategic location adjacent to Healthcare Associates of Texas, which provide additional primary care patient referrals to our tenants.”

Ridgeline Capital Partners acquires and operates medical office buildings, health care real estate and behavioral health facilities in Texas and the Southeast.
