Real estate investment trusts closed out 2023 with a surge of investments in healthcare properties as they look to capitalize on an aging population that is becoming increasingly dependent on medical care.Healthcare real estate, a relatively niche market within the larger real estate industry that includes hospitals, assisted living facilities and rehabilitation centers, can often blend elements from familiar real estate sectors like office, multifamily and retail, offering a unique investment subtype.

I collected MTR comps and ran the numbers, and found that I might get an extra 15%-20% from a MTR, but I'm not sure if the vacancy rate I plugged in was reasonable (I'm in a mid-size city and my properties are close to Universities, hospitals, and other things that attract MTR tenants, so hopefully I'd have low vacancy...but I like to play it safe with my numbers, so I try to allow for a good bit of vacancy)... ...plus, all the comps I collected were just listings this month, and I don't know how much they're affected by seasonality, so my rent data might not be super accurate... ...maybe I'll give it a test run with one unit that's opening up in May, and see how it goes...

The best thing you can do is go to next court hearing(before closing) and talk to the court inspectors.

DSTs (Delaware Statutory Trusts) are as close to passive real estate investing as you can get while still holding real estate and claiming the same tax benefits.

I invest in a small rural community where there are often few comparable close by, so it is even more important for me to know my market.
