Who Says New Construction Is Dead?
We all have heard how construction costs have soared, rendering some new developments to be too expensive, at least for now. They just won’t pencil out at current cost levels, and you can only push unit rates just so far. Bucking this trend is Carlson Management, a California-based provider and developer. The company has developed five ground-up seniors housing communities to date, totaling 518 units in California, and has four other communities under construction or pre-construction with another 368 units. It also purchased two small communities in 2018. To help continue with its growth, Carlson launched an equity joint venture with RSF Partners to pursue its growth objectives. To kick... Read More »

Attention to Wellness in Active Adult Living
New construction in the senior care industry dropped during the pandemic for a variety of reasons, but we may be in the midst of a construction boom for active adult communities. We are reminded of 2014, when our inbox was starting to fill with many developers announcing their latest assisted living/memory care community groundbreakings. Not only that, investors and operators started to launch new development pipelines (some a little too ambitious), touting the unstoppable force of “demographics.” Eight years later, we are much closer to the baby boomers aging into seniors housing, and most of the new construction announcements have been in the lower-acuity, low-service active adult...
