News Release: Anchor Health Properties New Investment Marks Entry into West Coast Target Market

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

December 15, 2020

(Media, PA) Anchor Health Properties (Anchor), a national full service healthcare real estate development, management, and investment company focused exclusively on healthcare facilities, has recently closed on a 38,858 Class A medical office building in Happy Valley, Oregon, a submarket of Portland. Acquired through a joint venture with an existing institutional equity partner, this asset marks Anchor’s first investment in the greater Portland MSA, and the only institutional medical office asset to trade in the Portland MSA in 2020.

Strategically located at 9200 SE 91st Avenue, the facility features close proximity to Adventist Medical Center and Providence Portland Medical Center. The 100% occupied building is anchored by East Portland Surgical Center, a four-operating room Ambulatory Surgery Center that is operated as a joint venture between USPI, a physician syndication, and Legacy Health, one of the top health systems in the market. This surgery center is a top performing location for the health system and offers a diverse mix of services, including cosmetic surgery, ENT, GI, gynecology, neurosurgery, ophthalmology, orthopedic, general pain, and urology.

“Our recent acquisition of the Mt. Scott Professional Center represents the kind of deal we are looking for – an off market, 100% leased asset with high-quality, long-term regional tenancy that is located in a -high barrier to entry market,” shared James Schmid, Chief Investment Officer and Managing Partner with Anchor. Schmid added that, “despite the ongoing pandemic, the Anchor investments team was able to spend meaningful time understanding a new market for the firm including time on the ground in a safe and responsible fashion- a key element in our ability to close 27 transactions this year, many of which were not marketed to a broad audience if at all”.

Elliott Sellers of Anchor, who led underwriting efforts on the transaction, added, “with a majority of the in-place tenancy original to the building, we are excited about acquiring this outstanding property and building relationships with trusted, market-leading practices in the area. The Happy Valley submarket sits squarely in east Portland and is strategic to established and growing healthcare providers due to proximity to the Clackamas County population base and state-of-the-art medical centers that continue to grow in market share.”

Additional tenancy at this facility includes The Oregon Clinic, a patient-centered data-driven medical and surgical practice serving patients throughout the greater Portland MSA with 84 locations, and Clearview MRI, a medical imaging practice with four regional locations.

Sean Brennecke and Mark Fraser with Kidder Matthews provided sale advisory services and Capital One provided debt financing services. Anchor Health Properties will also provide asset and property management at this location.
