The Changing Landscape of Senior Housing
In commercial real estate, the saying is always LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION, but what does that mean for senior housing? Developers have varying perspectives on this and the evolving landscape as seniors’ preferences change.
How do developers choose a location for senior communities and what do they look for in supporting commercial real estate? What commercial space, if any, is integrated into developments to ensure a vibrant and desirable community? How do we, as participants in the commercial real estate industry, create a real estate eco-system of service and design to best build and support these communities? Given COVID’s impact on hospitality and big box retail, is it possible to repurpose existing real estate for senior housing?
We have assembled a panel of experts, moderated by Lesley McAdams, to address these questions and delve deeper into the changing landscape of senior housing.
