SACRAMENTO, Calif. (June 29, 2016) – American Healthcare Investors and Griffin Capital Corporation, the co-sponsors of Griffin-American Healthcare REIT IV, Inc., announced today that the REIT has acquired Auburn Medical Office Building, an approximately 19,000-square-foot medical office building in the affluent Sacramento suburb of Auburn, California.

Auburn Medical Office Building is 100 percent leased to The Regents of the University of California for the benefit of UC Davis Medical Group, a member of the UC Davis Health System, which has occupied the building since its construction in 1997. Strategically located within a block of the 72-bed Sutter Auburn Faith Hospital, a number of healthcare services are provided in the building, including primary care and specialty services such as pediatrics, cardiology, orthopaedics, obstetrics and gynecology, imaging and laboratory procedures.

“Auburn Medical Office Building is an ideal acquisition for Griffin-American Healthcare REIT IV,” said Danny Prosky, a principal of American Healthcare Investors and president and chief operating officer of Griffin-American Healthcare REIT IV. “It is 100 percent leased to an exceptional tenant that has been in occupancy for nearly 20 years and enjoys an institutional grade credit rating of Aa2 from Moody’s Investor Services. Additionally, it is located in close proximity to a significant acute care hospital and plays an important role in the regional healthcare delivery system.”

Auburn Medical Office Building was acquired from Kargan Holdings, LLC, an unaffiliated third party represented by Newmark Grubb Knight Franks’ Dana Hamric, Todd Perman, Garth Hogan and Joey Dillard. Griffin-American Healthcare REIT IV was represented by Jeff Traynor of Newmark Cornish & Carey and financed the acquisition using cash on hand.
