Sales Total
$902 million
Led by Managing Directors Gideon Orion and Tony Cassie, Senior Director Alex Vice, Directors Thomas Falkenberg and Sam Thompson, Associate Director Nicholas Hall and Associate Brant Nelson, the Walker & Dunlop Seniors Housing Team advises on large portfolios, single assets, and development projects, bringing deep expertise across transaction types and asset sizes. In 2025, the group closed 30 deals totaling $902 million in sales volume.
One notable transaction involved the sale of a 400-unit seniors housing portfolio in Wisconsin. Walker & Dunlop also represented a private equity sponsor at the end of its fund life in the disposition of a Midwest-based 140-unit independent living/assisted living/memory care community with occupancy above 95%.
These are some of the reasons we selected the Walker & Dunlop Seniors Housing Team as one of Connect CRE’s National Top Broker Award winners for 2026. These awards recognize industry professionals who have demonstrated the highest standards and transaction volumes in investment sales and leasing.
