Cornerstone Healthcare Plus REIT
Acquires Ohio Assisted Living/Memory Care Facility For $17.5 Million

(Irvine, CA) December 29, 2010 - Cornerstone Real Estate Funds, and its strategic alliance partner and sub-advisor Servant Healthcare Investments, announced that the Cornerstone Healthcare Plus REIT has acquired Carriage Court of Hilliard – a 70,000 square foot assisted living and memory care facility located in Hilliard, OH.  The $17.5 million property has a total of 102 units of which 64 are dedicated to assisted living and 38 are focused on memory care.

This transaction marks the second property acquisition between Cornerstone Healthcare Plus REIT and Good Neighbor Care – the manager and operator of the facility. Cornerstone Healthcare Plus REIT acquired an $8.5 million assisted living facility in Chattanooga, TN from Good Neighbor Care several months ago.
