Interest in senior housing real estate continues to rise throughout the country, due to an increase in demand and a change in desires. According to recent studies, 4.7 million senior residents will prospectively join the senior housing market within the next five years; a result of an expected population increase of 21% in seniors aged 75 and older.

This generation is seeking new alternatives to traditional senior living facilities, desiring continued freedom and modern amenities for their social lifestyles. Aiming to ensure a progressive, stable quality-of-life, developers and communities alike are taking notice and looking to create luxury “resort-style” living communities to assist seniors in their eventual life change. Professionals across the industry are also acknowledging the need for technology updates in senior living facilities, seeking to integrate digital doctor-patient communication systems for increased efficiency and relaxed environments.

Real estate professionals are capitalizing on this new demographic dynamic, allowing for creative solutions and developments catered to senior's current needs and desires. Senior housing proposals have significantly expanded, gaining interested across the entire industry with many ground-up developments.

GlobeSt. Real Estate Forum is looking to highlight those who that have helped shape the senior housing real estate market and continue to drive its spectacular performance. Our next Influencer series will profile innovative individuals, teams and firms that have made an impact, becoming crucial to the industry. Nominees will be featured in Real Estate Forum's November/December issue.
