Smaller Sales Drive Higher Number Of Senior Living M&a Deals In 2025

The number of senior living mergers and acquisitions in 2025 has reached “new heights,” with 733 publicly announced deals recorded in the last 12 months, according to a recent report from Irving Levin Associates. The dollar value of said transactions isn’t quite keeping pace.

For comparison, dealmakers inked 518 deals in 2023 and 717 in 2024.

Whereas the deal landscape for senior living was once dominated by large transactions of 10 or more properties, dealmakers these days are transacting on multiple smaller deals. Since 2001, the industry’s largest deals include Ventas’ $7.4 billion acquisition of Nationwide Health Properties in 2011, Fortress Investment Group’s acquisition of Holiday Retirement Corp. in 2006 for $6.6 billion and The Carlyle Group’s $6.3 billion acquisition of Manor Care, Inc. in 2007. Welltower’s roughly $3.2 billion acquisition of a 38-community senior living portfolio managed by Amica Senior Lifestyles in Canada registered as the no. 10 largest deal in that time frame.

While the dollar volume of these deals has trended back upwards, from $7.9 billion in 2023 to $11.9 billion in the 12 months ended at the end of June, it’s still well below the peak around $30 billion the industry saw in 2014, the report states.
