"One of the most important considerations for physician-owners of ASC real estate is the impact the sale, lease and rent rates will have on the on the total value of their assets, which in this case included interests in both the surgical facility and ancillary services," states ASCs Inc. founder and Managing Partner Jon Vick. “In this instance, the physician-owned real estate transaction required no changes to the existing lease and rent payments, so there was no change in the financial performance of the ASC”.
Many ASC owners are considering the sale-leaseback of their ASC real estate to provide liquidity, diversify their assets, or simply to take advantage of the high premium prices medical real estate buyers are paying for quality medical buildings under long-term leases. The Wellness Ambulatory Surgery Center real estate was sold to a private investor in a 1031 exchange.
