Senior Market Feasibility Services

VSI continues to address the growing senior housing market with highly relevant and detailed market studies. These studies address a variety of issues surrounding senior care facilities, including the market feasibility of specific housing types. These include independent living, congregate care, assisted living, supportive-living, nursing care and adult day care. We also provide analysis and recommendations for the ongoing feasibility of existing facilities, including the addition of other components, health care services and reconfiguration strategies.

Our studies provide a detailed look at the different options for seniors, including market-rate and affordable (subsidized) senior residential care. We not only address the basic components of supply and demand, but also focus specifically on concept, continuum of care issues and specific health care issues. On the demand side, we provide a detailed and exact demand analysis, taking into consideration the latest demographic information and trends in senior living and health care assets.
