Unlike some REITs, HTA plans to be a net buyer of HRE in 2016. Why?
“The tailwinds in the MOB space continues to be strong. The Affordable Care Act continues to bring people into the healthcare system. The U.S. continues to grow older with over 55 million additional individuals turning 65 over the next five years and healthcare GDP and healthcare employment continue to grow and lead our economy forward. At HTA we look at the MOB sector as a combination of healthcare, traditional real estate and an asset management platform that is focused on service.”
Scott D. Peters, Chairman, CEO & President, Healthcare Trust of America Inc., speaking Feb. 19 during the firm’s fourth quarter (Q4) earnings conference call. For more on public REIT investment strategies, please see the Cover Story “Who’s selling MOBs?”.
