Multi-family development in the last decade has become much more prevalent due to issues such as higher student debt, residential construction expense and a social shift away from home ownership; and senior development has escalated due to the graying of America. Young professionals and retirees alike are consistently turning to rental and housing options versus traditional ownership. Affordable housing is also becoming challenging to find for working class Americans. These key statistics have generated an ever-changing and the every-growing demand for market rate multi-family housing, senior housing, independent living, assisted living and affordable housing as well as other new types of higher density dwellings. These assets are viewed as conservative and sustainable investments and that has translated into a virtual boom in the multi-family investment and senior housing development industries. Both investors and developers can now capture the tremendous upside that comes with these real estate categories.
