Quotes:

“I feel like the assistant living space, which can be explored further…is there but it’s not like everyone is rushing there towards it because it’s more of an operation intensive business.”

“[The senior assistant living space] is a very operation-intensive business. We come in as investors, we get it built, but even to do the operation [everything] has to be correct. So we have to find the right operation efficient company to do the work.”

“The biggest challenge with residential is to do the operations…number one operations and number two, from a scalability standpoint, getting a loan on those properties.”

“From a conversion standpoint, you will buy as a residential home, you will put the money to modify it… so you are talking about nine months worth of delay before you can go into the operation. And then filling up time can be anywhere from 3 to 6 months depending on what you do.”

“The biggest factor [at play in hotel to senior housing conversions] is the zoning. You know, if the hotel is empty doesn’t mean you can go in and convert it. It depends on the town and if they’re going to allow for assisted living in that area or not. Number two is the general population, the age group, and what is their income and the demand.”
