Stable Housing Leads to Better Health Outcomes
“Housing with integrated health services is an important solution toward bending the healthcare cost curve.”
New study shows Medicaid costs fell by 12 percent (1 year) when people moved into affordable housing (1625 people – 145 properties) in Portland, Oregon.
• Used more primary care
• Had fewer ER visits
• Accumulated lower medical expenses by 12%
• Better access to and quality of healthcare

Financial Challenges for Older Adults
• 3 out of 5 Seniors cannotafford Assisted Living
• Household income for nearly 61% of 75+ population in the U.S. is less than $35,000(Nielsen 2014)
• Of those over 65 with annual incomes above $20,000, only 16% have private LTC insurance. (M Cohen-2013)
The New Frontier
• Federal and State Governments struggling to deal with cost containment in Medicare and Medicaid
• PP and ACA led to creation of Medicare and Medicaid Coordination Office
• “The New Frontier” is the promotion of innovative programs/partnerships –seems like almost anything goes
• The CMS Innovation Center (innovation.cms.gov) has 68 models across 7 categories

AL/IL Valuations
Although senior housing valuations remain near all-time highs, momentum has shifted away from AL/IL to SNFs.
Driven by a rise in the top and upper quartile sales, both assisted living communities and independent livingcommunities set new average price per unit records in 2014.
Demand is particularly high for high end facilities (a sale valued over $500,000 per unit was recorded for the first time),increasing the spread between the average and median per unit values.
For the first time since 2009, cap rates are higher and per unit values declined year-over-year for the senior housingsector, signifying the market could be peaking.

Valuation Drivers
What are Buyers Looking for?
Financial
Performance
As expected, buyers pay a premium for well operated and financially sound
facilities
Buyers are apprehensive to pay for performance enhancements or synergies
that they believe they can bring to the table
Size and Scale Buyers are consistently looking for increased scale and will pay a premium for
larger facilities with more perceived economies of scale
Construction
Quality
Facilities are generally divided into A or B categories based on facility age and
condition and buyers will pay a premium for assets determined to be of superior
quality
Demographics &
Occupancy
Buyers are highly focused on facility demographics and occupancy and pay a
premium for desirable locations with strong occupancy
Regulatory &
Reimbursement
Environment
Recent and proposed regulatory changes pertaining to state evaluations and
Medicaid reimbursement have buyers very focused on payor mix and State
reimbursement policies
