Sabra acquired the Georgia property, a 100-unit assisted living and memory care facility, on March 5.

The transaction was underwritten with an initial cash yield of nearly 8%, and features an earnout opportunity for the seller after 12 months.
Along with the acquisition of the Claiborne at West Lake, Sabra simultaneously entered into a management agreement with property's current manager, Claiborne Senior Living, to continue managing the property.
