Are Senior Housing Prices Close to Peak Levels?

[Corey Dutton]

From an article published on National Real Estate Investor (NREIOnline.com), growing interest in the Senior Housing Sector could be pushing prices close to peak levels. In fact, senior housing transaction volumes are currently at record levels, and some of the biggest developers in other property types are putting senior housing projects on the drawing board.

The interest in Senior Housing has grown for several reasons. Because more information about market fundamentals and conditions is now available from such sources as Real Capital Analytics (RCA) and NIC MAP, the availability of information has increased investor understanding of the sector. Investor interest in the sector has also been driven by demographic trends and of course, low interest rates. But is the pricing in Senior Housing Sector reaching peak levels? With a market contraction now overdue, many believe Senior Housing valuations will likely fall, while others believe the current pricing is sustainable. What is your opinion? Is Senior Housing on the edge of a bursting bubble or will it be able to ride out the upcoming storm or inevitable market contraction? Read the entire article at the link below.
