INVESTMENT HIGHLIGHTS

Growing Senior Population Driving Demand

Between 2010 and 2020, Florida experienced a 39.2% increase in its 65+ population, outpacing the national average of 34.2%. Projections estimate that by 2030, over 7 million Floridians will be 65 or older, comprising about 26% of the state’s total population. Florida remains a top retirement destination, home to 21% of all Americans aged 65 and older. This significant growth drives demand for age-friendly housing, such as 55+ communities and multifamily properties offering amenities tailored to older adults, supporting both occupancy rates and long-term property stabilization.

Rising Median Household Income

As more affluent residents move into the area, median household income continues to rise, creating strong opportunities for rent growth and enhancing the property’s long-term financial performance. Since 2021, the property has experienced a 53% increase in maximum rents allowed under the LURA, driven by rising median income levels. This trend is expected to persist, supporting robust NOI growth throughout the designated hold period.

Section 8 Tenants

With 28% of the property occupied by Section 8 tenants, the next owner will benefit from stable occupancy and reliable cash flow throughout the designated hold period, providing an additional layer of financial security.
