The Age-Restricted Opportunity: Where The 55+ Land
Age-restricted (55+) active adult communities — purpose-built for healthy, independent older adults — represent one of the most compelling supply-demand stories in U.S. residential real estate. The opportunity is largest where institutional capital has been smallest: in secondary and tertiary markets.
Key findings in this white paper:
- Stabilized age-restricted communities lead the sector.
- Rent growth is consistent with senior housing.
- Smaller markets carry the rent-growth premium.
- Resident retention rates sit over 75%.
- The 55+ wave is the structural demand.
- Capital Square is positioned advantageously.
