Guidance from management
Management expressed confidence in continued operational momentum, with expectations for further improvements in NOI and occupancy as integration progresses. They indicated that they are actively pursuing additional acquisitions and capitalizing on growth opportunities.
What management said
And Wes, beyond that -- thanks for the questions too. But beyond that, there's also the internalization of management. So right now, we're generally paying 5% of revenues to the third-party operators. And to the extent that we internalize those upon transition, that number should ramp down significantly, laid out on Slide 30, so that the cost to serve and operate those communities would be something south of 5%.
Ben, this is Kevin. Yes, we've gotten a lot of good feedback from lots of groups that want to participate. So we feel like we'll be in a position to take out the bridge at the end of the second quarter or early Q3 at the latest just based on the demand and the pricing that's coming back and the overall participation in our cap stack.
What analysts pressed on
Analysts raised questions about the pace of future acquisitions and the potential impact of integrating newly acquired communities. There were also inquiries regarding the expected synergies from the CHP acquisition and the overall capital allocation strategy moving forward.
