DigitalBridge Group has sold the last of its legacy healthcare real estate holdings as part of its transformation to a digital infrastructure REIT. Namely, it has sold some 300 facilities across senior housing, skilled nursing, medical office buildings and hospitals in a deal valued at $3.2 billion to two real estate investment firms, Highgate Capital Investments and Aurora Health Network.
Alongside the 300 healthcare real estate facilities, DigitalBridge's so-called Wellness Infrastructure business includes its equity interest in and management of its sponsored non-traded REIT, NorthStar Healthcare Income.
DigitalBridge's net proceeds come to $316 million—comprising $226 million in cash and a $90 million 5-year seller note—and the buyers are assuming $2.6 billion in consolidated investment-level debt and $294 million of subsidiary-level debt.
