For Facility Owners
Sell your facility quietly, and for what it's really worth
Your facility is a licensed business, a property, and a home for the people in your care. Selling it takes more than a listing — it takes a specialist process that protects all three.
What Your Facility Is Worth
Facility value lives in details general agents miss
A house comp can't see a hospice waiver. We price facilities on the factors licensed-care buyers actually pay for:
License & waivers
Non-ambulatory approval, hospice waivers, APS contracts — credentials a general agent never prices in.
Census stability
Long-tenured residents and a full house translate directly into buyer confidence and price.
Income quality
Private-pay mix, rate history, and documented gross income — presented the way facility buyers underwrite.
The real estate itself
Layout, staff quarters, sprinklers, ADUs, solar — the property attributes that matter for licensed care.
Three Exit Structures
You have more than one way out
Most owners only know the outright sale. Depending on whether you own the real estate and what you want your retirement to look like, one of these usually fits better:
Business + Property for Sale
The licensed care business and the real estate sell together in one turn-key transaction — the buyer owns both the operation and the property.
Fits owners ready to exit completely and maximize a single payday.
Business for Sale · Property Lease
The operating business is for sale while the real property is offered on a long-term lease — a lower cost of entry into an established, income-producing facility.
Fits owners who want retirement income — sell the operation, keep the property, collect the lease.
Property for Lease
A licensed-care-ready property offered for lease — bring your own operation. Demand from operators for lease-ready homes is exceptionally strong.
Fits property owners who are done operating — lease the home to a vetted operator and keep ownership.
In every structure, only the property is ever leased — the business itself is sold, never leased. We'll walk you through the numbers for each path as part of your valuation. Done operating and just want lease income from the property? See how property leasing works.
Discretion Is the Deal
Staff, residents, and competitors never hear a word
A leaked sale can unsettle staff and families and damage the very census that makes your facility valuable. Our marketing is confidential by default: no yard signs, no public address, no facility photos in public marketing — every buyer is vetted and signs an NDA before seeing your financials or your name.
Client Stories
Trusted by California facility owners and operators
Their knowledge of ARF and RCFE regulations saved us from a deal with major compliance issues. They found us a better property and handled everything seamlessly.
I tried selling my facility with a general agent for 8 months. Within 6 weeks of working with California Assisted Living Realty, I had multiple qualified offers above asking price.
As a first-time ARF buyer, I needed someone who could guide me through licensing and operations too. Invaluable expertise from start to finish.
