Acquisitions of Real Estate Property

NOTE 4–ACQUISITIONS OF REAL ESTATE PROPERTY

The following summarizes our acquisition and development activities during 2020, 2019 and 2018. We acquire and invest in senior housing, medical office buildings, research and innovation centers and other healthcare properties primarily to achieve an expected yield on our investment, to grow and diversify our portfolio and revenue base, and to reduce our dependence on any single tenant, operator or manager, geographic location, asset type, business model or revenue source.

2020 Acquisitions

During the year ended December 31, 2020, we acquired two research and innovation centers reported within our office operations reportable business segment, seven senior housing communities reported within our senior living operations reportable business segment and one LTAC reported within our triple-net leased properties reportable business segment for an aggregate consideration of $249.5 million. Each of these acquisitions was accounted for as an asset acquisition.

2019 Acquisitions

In September 2019, we acquired an 87% interest in 34 Canadian senior housing communities (including five in-process developments) valued at $1.8 billion through an equity partnership (the “LGM Acquisition”) with Le Groupe Maurice (“LGM”).  The portfolio continues to be managed by LGM.  We also have rights to fund and own all additional developments under an exclusive pipeline agreement with LGM.

During the year ended December 31, 2019, we also acquired two properties reported within our office operations reportable business segment (one research and innovation center and one MOB), two senior housing communities reported within our senior living operations reportable business segment and one vacant land parcel for an aggregate purchase price of $237.0 million.

Each of our 2019 acquisitions was accounted for as an asset acquisition.

2018 Acquisitions

During the year ended December 31, 2018, we acquired five properties reported within our office operations reportable business segment (four MOBs and one research and innovation center) and one senior housing community reported within our senior living operations reportable business segment for an aggregate purchase price of $311.3 million. Each of these acquisitions was accounted for as an asset acquisition.
