Healthcare Real Estate

Lead by a seasoned team averaging 15 years in the industry, the CapitalSource Healthcare Real Estate group delivers flexible solutions to senior housing and skilled nursing facilities striving to meet their acquisition and growth objectives.

Healthcare real estate is a niche market within the larger real estate market. Healthcare real estate or "Medical real estate" describes buildings, offices, and campuses leased to members or organizations within the healthcare community, but owned and operated by third party groups. There is a rising trend among hospitals, health care systems, and medical practitioners to embrace third party ownership and management of real estate. By using third party developers, they can preserve their capital resources for acute care needs and focus their attention on helping people, while passing on responsibility of building regulation and maintenance minutiae.

Healthcare facilities have detailed technological and regulatory requirements. Even such building maintenance tasks as cleaning, heating and cooling are done differently in health care, with demanding sterilization and filtration needs. In addition to outsourcing building and management tasks, it's becoming increasingly attractive for hospitals to leave building ownership itself to someone else. The concept fits well with the current development trend pairing not-for-profit hospitals with for-profit physician groups as partners in new specialty facilities, such as The Heart Center of Indiana. Illinois, Texas, California and Florida accounted for a third of healthcare construction starts in 2007, though the practice of third party ownership is also rising among all metropolitan areas where space is at a premium.
