Senior Housing Investors

Imagine waking up one day to find industries across the globe tapping into a market that's been overlooked for too long - senior housing. That's the pivotal topic we delve into on this episode, with our esteemed guest, Chad Anfinson of Silver Treasures Senior Living. Together, we dissect the urgent need for housing for our eldest population, the opportunities it presents, and the significant challenges it brings along. As we traverse through this under-served market, we shed light on its potential promising returns, and the need for innovation and reuse of existing structures. We even delve into the culture of the industry, underlining the importance of a people-first approach.
The conversation doesn't stop there. We meander into the financial landscape of assisted living entrepreneurship, examining its unique intricacies and the impact of the current lending climate. With Chad’s expertise, we discuss the importance of having a knowledgeable partner in the industry, and how the role of owner financing can make or break a facility. We also consider how family offices and wealth management firms can contribute to this sector with potential for significant returns. The benefits of being an owner-operator in the assisted living business are not left untouched, as we discuss its potential advantages to one's family and net worth.
Our final lap takes us deep into the heart of senior living communities - their physical systems, equipment maintenance, and the costs involved. We also delve into the importance of reputation in this business and how word of mouth can pave the way for unprecedented opportunities. We couldn't wrap up without discussing fall prevention in assisted living, how technology can be leveraged to aid in this, and the importance of understanding an individual's routine. As we round up, we highlight the potential for investors interested in contributing to the care of our most vulnerable populations. This episode is not just about the senior living industry, it's about a community in need and the opportunities that lie within.
