Open a section for the details, each with where it came from and when we read it. Checked against state records in September 2026. Last updated October 2026.
Overview
In our words
The license here is new, but the building is not. AZ Care Check lists the license date as the original licensed date too, which fits a sale of an existing home rather than one that just opened. In July 2026, AZBEX reported that Stellar Senior Living bought The Watermark at Oro Valley from PGIM Real Estate and would rebrand it as The Ironwood at Oro Valley. The same report describes a community of 101 units built in 2018 on 3.42 acres. Those 101 units and the licensed capacity of 103 are two different counts from two different sources.
