We have a 36 bed ALF - Lower income - we figured out how to make money serving a market others do not like to serve -It's been rewarding We have GREAT people/staff now --- People are one of the most important aspectsAs for #'s - it really is a depends question as labor rates vary, state regs are going to vary on how you need to staff etc.Here's the order of our expenses monthly:Wages  (About 40-50% of revenue when we have a good month - fluctuates and this includes my salary which really at any other location may be a management fee etc - but wise to build something in)Principal and interest paymentFood  (When I bought the business Food was higher than P&I but we got it lowered by tweaking some things - I'm sure we could tweak it a little more but I'm not the type that wants to wring every drop of blood out of a turnip - some waste, loss etc is going to happen - I have cooks that take good care of the residents and they are happy which is what I care about)ElectricityAnyways wages by far and away are the largest expense item.I went down this path so am a bit biased I guess - but find a struggling business or an existing one for sale and find a way to buy it and then improve the operations.
