If you're looking to invest in senior housing, now is a good time with most investors expecting rent growth between 3% and 7%.

Despite rising interest rates, this strong rent growth redeems this sector's prospects for investors. Add the high need-based demand, and this is a great investment opportunity for many.

Here are the top investment opportunities in this sector, according to the U.S. Seniors Housing & Care Investor Survey 2023 by CBRE:

• Active adult properties
• Assisted living
• Independent living

Get in touch with our team for expert assistance in understanding the intricate nature of interest rate fluctuations and how they impact senior housing and other commercial assets. We can help ensure that your investment strategies stay strong amidst ever-changing economic conditions.

Over the past year, we have seen a significant drop in self-storage sales – 57%, to be exact. This decline can be attributed to the rising cost of debt and limited liquidity in the market, resulting in a complex landscape for industry players.

Higher-leveraged owners are facing obstacles while well-capitalized investors are finding potential avenues for growth.

However, it's worth noting that the self-storage sector remains resilient, with transaction levels still exceeding pre-COVID-19 numbers.

In fact, occupancy rates remained steady at approximately 90% in the last quarter of 2022, and this pattern has continued with minimal variation during the first half of 2023. Read the full article at REjournals.

With all of these factors in mind, our team can connect you with the right capital source for your next self-storage project. From acquisition financing to construction financing and beyond, we can give you financing options.

If you're looking to implement Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) practices, you'll want to start by evaluating your current level of ESG maturity.

Many companies already have policies in place that align with ESG principles, such as reducing waste and promoting diversity and inclusion in hiring practices.

By taking stock of your current ESG position, you can establish a starting point, disclose existing policies transparently, and pinpoint areas that need improvement.

Next, identify key stakeholders and conduct an assessment to determine which ESG topics are most significant to the business. The results of this assessment will guide the company's strategy, communication efforts, and reporting on ESG matters.
