There's drug rehabs and halfway houses etc.When you open something like an ALF, you're kinda leaving the real estate business and moving into the healthcare field - which can be a very good thing.

Hmm no jobs, so I guess the more then 2 mill sq ft Amazon built, the new Hilton, Marriott A Loft, and other hotels , and many many new restaurants and of course the Cleveland Clinic is MASSIVE along with many other health care cos.

I have the added cushion of having government healthcare (I'm a Navy vet), so I'm covered there, though my wife is not.

Healthcare Finance, new real estate investor

How are you handling health care?  

And my unit cf rises faster than inflation.Divide your retirement dollars + healthcare need  per month into units rented out. 

El Paso’s job market is quite diversified, and it is seeing gains in areas like healthcare, government, finance, hospitality and logistics.Furthermore,I have personally seen an increase interest from Out-of-state investors that are coming to El Paso to invest in Real Estate which confirms how good the market is here.Let me know if anyone need more specific information on the market with regards CAP rates, neighborhoods, etc.Thanks!

There are still roughly 400K people there, numerous colleges, healthcare jobs, etc. 

You come out with a pile of educational benefits to devote toward your future and good health care for life, as well as the best general trades school training the world has to offer.But over the years, and especially through reading so many horror stories here, I've come to believe that you (and others like you) are really asking the wrong question.

Many of our tenants are in healthcare-doctors and nurses and admin-others work for the city we do not see those sectors as vulnerable.
