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

/in , /by

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.

/in /by

Global investment firm KKR has formed a joint venture with Cornerstone Companies, a healthcare real estate investment, development and management firm, to acquire and develop a portfolio of healthcare properties across the United States.

KKR and Cornerstone have seeded the portfolio with the recapitalization of 25 healthcare properties owned by Cornerstone. With funding commitments provided by KKR’s real estate and credit funds and Cornerstone, the Joint Venture is positioned to acquire more than $1 billion in real estate assets over the next few years.

The portfolio recapitalized by KKR and Cornerstone includes 713,705 square feet of medical office buildings and ambulatory surgery centers located across 12 states, with in place long-term leases to a high quality group of healthcare systems, physician group practices and surgery center operators. Cornerstone and KKR will work together to grow the portfolio through acquisitions and net lease development opportunities, with a focus primarily on long-term leased single-tenant medical office buildings, ambulatory surgery centers and facility-based outpatient healthcare assets.

“KKR is one of the world’s largest investment firms with incredible connectivity across industries, including deep experience investing in the healthcare and real estate sectors,” said Tag Birge, President and CEO of Cornerstone. “This strategic partnership significantly increases our reach and capacity to deliver investment and development solutions for leading physician groups and health systems. We are very excited to work with a partner in KKR who shares our commitment to lasting client relationships and strong focus on portfolio construction and underwriting.”

“We are pleased to collaborate with the highly-regarded team of industry specialists at Cornerstone to invest in a scaled portfolio of healthcare properties,” said Peter Sundheim, Director at KKR. “The recapitalization of 25 well-situated seed assets creates a strong foundation for our Joint Venture.”

“We will contribute capabilities from across KKR’s real estate, credit and healthcare industry teams to support sourcing and underwriting of assets for the Joint Venture,” said Michelle Hour, Director at KKR. “As investors in the healthcare sector for more than two decades, our relationships and understanding of the needs of tenants will help us to provide attractive ownership for their mission-critical real estate.”

Additional financial terms of the Joint Venture and recapitalization transaction were not disclosed.

Newmark’s Healthcare Capital Markets Group advised Cornerstone and KKR on establishing the Joint Venture, represented Cornerstone on the portfolio recapitalization transaction, and provided advice to KKR on debt financing. CBRE’s Healthcare and Life Sciences Capital Markets Group provided buyside advisory services to KKR on the portfolio recapitalization transaction. Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP acted as legal counsel to KKR.
