TriHealth has announced plans to build a new Medical Office Building (MOB) to more closely connect one of its medical groups, Group Health Associates.

As with all real estate asset classes in recent years, the self-storage industry has experienced challenges to financing both for existing properties as well as sourcing funds for new projects. Developers who were ready to build suddenly found their funding resources dry up. In addition, a decade-long rapid-build phase had led to overbuilt markets, giving lenders yet another reason to pull the plug on self-storage lending.

As a modern prescription for patient care, medical-office annexes are fast becoming havens for outpatient treatment that is convenient, high quality and efficient.

At the end of 2010, Healthcare Trust of America had acquired eight of the nine medical office buildings in the Columbia Development Companies and Columbia 90 Associates, L.L.C. Portfolio.
