\n

Originally established in 1996 as The Cirrus Group, LLC and later operating as HealthCap Partners, the firm owned more than 150 healthcare properties across 28 states, spanning medical outpatient buildings, ambulatory surgery centers, specialty hospitals and senior housing communities. Over the past three decades, HealthCap has been one of the most prolific medical real estate developers in the United States, with notable projects including The Carrell Clinic Center in Dallas, Texas. HealthCap\u2019s broader experience includes more than 5 million square feet of healthcare real estate and more than $2.5 billion in transactional volume, reflecting its long-standing role in the growth and institutionalization of the healthcare real estate sector.<\/p>\n

The acquisition brings together two relationship-driven healthcare real estate platforms with deep Dallas roots and complementary capabilities. HealthCap\u2019s experience in development, brokerage, site selection, and property management complements Big Sky\u2019s national investment and asset management platform, which focuses on medical outpatient buildings, ambulatory centers, specialty hospitals and other mission-critical healthcare facilities. Together, the combined platform is positioned to provide healthcare operators, physician partners, tenants and investors with broader capabilities, deeper operational resources and continuity of service across the full healthcare real estate lifecycle.<\/p>\n

The transaction also carries personal significance for Big Sky. Multiple members of Big Sky\u2019s current leadership team began working together in healthcare real estate at The Cirrus Group. Big Sky\u2019s CEO, Jason Signor, served as Vice President and led a dozen medical outpatient developments as well as the asset management team during his tenure at Cirrus, while Senior Director of Property Management Kelli Fairall served as Senior Property Manager from 2006 to 2009. As part of the transaction, Nikki Matthews, President of HealthCap, will join Big Sky\u2019s acquisitions team as a Director. The acquisition therefore represents both a strategic expansion of Big Sky\u2019s healthcare real estate platform and a continuation of a legacy that helped shape the careers of several members of its leadership team.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Cirrus Group is where I got my start developing medical outpatient buildings, and it remains an important part of my professional story,\u201d said Jason Signor, CEO of Big Sky. \u201cI had the honor of working with exceptional mentors and role models there, including Bill Hutchison, Jr. and Jason Dodd, whose innovation in ambulatory surgery centers and physician-owned hospitals helped pave the way for institutional capital in healthcare real estate. Bringing HealthCap into the Big Sky platform is meaningful not only because of the firm\u2019s history, but because of the people, relationships and entrepreneurial spirit behind that history.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHealthCap has spent nearly three decades helping healthcare providers and investors solve complex real estate and capital needs,\u201d said Jason K. Dodd, Partner at HealthCap Partners. \u201cBig Sky understands the healthcare real estate business at both the investment and operating level, and its team shares our commitment to relationships, creativity and long-term stewardship. We believe this combination is a natural next chapter for HealthCap, our clients, our partners and the legacy that began with The Cirrus Group.\u201d<\/p>\n

The acquisition expands Big Sky\u2019s national presence while preserving HealthCap\u2019s three-decade legacy as a healthcare real estate platform built around provider relationships, capital solutions and hands-on execution. Select HealthCap leadership will continue in their roles following the close of the transaction, operating within the broader Big Sky platform and supporting a seamless transition for clients, tenants, investors and healthcare partners.<\/p>\n
