1031 Crowdfunding has purchased two Utah senior living communities totaling 178 units in St. George and Lindon.

The company acquired the assets for its Delaware Statutory Trust offering, also entering the Utah market for the first time. Edward Fernandez, president & CEO of 1031 Crowdfunding, said in prepared remarks that the Utah market is attractive for senior housing investments, offering an ideal environment for business, lower taxes and a mix of diverse industries that continues to draw residents to the state.

Last year, 1031 Crowdfunding acquired another two senior living communities, Iris Memory Care in Dallas and Laurel Lodge in Cleveland, Ga.

The two Utah properties, Spring Gardens St. George and Spring Gardens Lindon, total 156,473 square feet across 5.8 acres. Avista Senior Living operates both communities. The company focuses on creating vibrant communities through social activities and cultural programs.
