TOLEDO, OHIO—Welltower has made two recent dispositions in the seniors housing and outpatient medical asset classes, for a total of $1 billion.

The REIT reports that the blended cap rate on the seniors housing properties was 5.8% on a trailing 12-month period and the outpatient medical assets sold at a 5.45% on a trailing 12-month NOI.

The seniors housing, or more specifically nursing homes, have been severely affected by the pandemic with more than 40,600 long-term care residents and workers having died of COVID-19—about 40% of the nation's death toll attributed to the coronavirus—according to an analysis of state data gathered by USA Today.
