Unicus helps you explore financing for your first assisted-living business or nonmedical home-care agency—or your next one—with the purchase, transition and working capital considered together.

Plan the purchase and handover
The purchase price is one part of the plan.
Financing the purchase
Unicus reviews the target’s cash flow, purchase price and your available contribution to explore financing structures for a first or additional acquisition.
Capital through the handover
Staffing, onboarding and collections can affect the cash needed after closing. We help you account for those needs alongside ownership and license-transfer requirements.
When property is included
The business and real estate may call for different financing structures. Share the property component, lease obligations and any development plans so each need can be considered.
Different models, different needs
What kind of care business are you buying?
Assisted living
Consider the operating business, occupancy, staffing and any real estate component. Ownership and license-transfer requirements can affect the structure and handover.
Nonmedical home-care agencies
Consider caregiver continuity, client retention and the way the agency gets paid—private-pay clients, public programs or a mix.
For assisted-living businesses and nonmedical home-care agencies. Skilled nursing and Medicare-certified home health have different operating and financing requirements.
Before we talk.
Can this be my first acquisition?
Yes. Share your relevant experience, proposed target, available contribution and operating plan. An existing company is optional. Financing depends on the buyer, target, structure and underwriting.
What if a property is involved?
Identify whether the need involves the operating business, real estate or both. Property purchase, refinance and development are evaluated separately from short-term operating needs.
What happens after I send an inquiry?
An advisor reviews your plans and follows up to discuss potential financing options and any additional information needed. The next step depends on your goals, the available information and the financing requirements.
