CareTrust REIT has announced the acquisition of a portfolio of 16 care homes across England and Scotland, representing an initial investment of approximately $226 million, including transaction costs.

The acquisition was completed in early August 2026 and forms part of a wider $291 million investment announced by CareTrust, which also included two senior housing communities in Utah. The UK portfolio will operate under long-term leases with an experienced care home management team with an established track record of successful operations.

The acquisition further expands CareTrust’s growing presence in the UK care home market, following its strategic expansion into the UK sector in 2025.

The latest transaction forms part of a significant period of investment for CareTrust. The company reports that its total investment activity during 2026 has now reached approximately $1.5 billion, with a further $540 million of near-term investment opportunities in its pipeline.

The wider pipeline includes further UK care home opportunities alongside skilled nursing acquisitions and strategic loans. For the UK care sector, the announcement provides another indication of the continued interest from institutional investors in care home property and operating opportunities.
