Active Adult
Having first defined the category in 2022, NIC continues to bring focus to the Active Adult rental property market by providing crucial insights and analyses to investors, operators, and industry thought leaders.
A Promising Landscape: Active Adult Rental Properties
The market for purpose-built active adult rental properties has enormous potential due to a large and immediate demand pool, no required healthcare licensure, less operational intensity than senior housing, and typically extended residency periods than that of senior housing or other multifamily properties. NIC strives to address the evolving landscape with data and insights to serve this growing demographic.
