Q: Senior Living Construction Trends

A: Conducting renovations all over the state of Texas and Florida and the Southeast, we're able to see a lot of different trends and a lot of different aspects of project renovations inside communities. A significant focus often revolves around effectively managing budgets, crafting thoughtful designs, and aligning projects with the specific goals of stakeholders. However, one of the emerging trends is a more intentional focus on the units in communities. 

While the majority of my professional journey has been dedicated to renovating common spaces, it’s important to renovate units as well. Renovating units is a challenging task as oftentimes residents live in them, but as mergers and acquisitions unfold, a unique window of opportunity emerges. Amidst scenarios of value-add repositioning, where concerns about occupancy or census may persist. Do not miss a perfect opportunity to go in and build a strategy and a plan for upgrading the units in your community.
