A third of U.S. seniors earns too much to qualify for subsidized housing but not enough to afford currentmarket rates. Solvida offers a solution that benefits individuals and the local community: converting uncompetitive hotels into attainable, resort-style housing alternatives for middle and lower-income seniors.

Apartments Designed with Seniors in Mind

While only select hotels lend themselves to conversion, the right property can provide a platform for affordability while delivering extraordinary returns. The National Investment Center for Seniors Housing & Care projects that 800,000 additional senior housing units will be needed in the United States by 2040. Solvida will target underdeveloped and growing markets for senior housing, including major primary and secondary markets.

Leaders in Health Planning and Construction Design

With over 100 years of combined experience in the senior housing industry, we are creating a new product category by converting functionally uncompetitive hotels at 60 percent of the cost of new construction. Solvida is uniquely qualified, having completed successful rehabilitation projects including the return of capital to investors and banks through the great recession of 2007. Our real estate development model is successful for the following reasons:

  • Almost no current competition for seniors earning $50-65k
  • One million new senior housing units needed in the U.S. by 2040
  • Success targeting U.S. secondary and retirement markets

The end product is a functional, resort-style facility offering prices up to a third less than market rates. This price point is uncontested in its property class, giving Solvida what marketers call a blue ocean market advantage for extraordinary profitability.

Revitalizing Hotels for Affordability

By converting uncompetitive hotels into senior healthcare investments, Solvida provides value and a fresh and exciting product amidst tired competitors. Aside from the obvious cost benefits over new construction, our approach revitalizes communities by transforming an older hotel into an asset. Our model enables value-based pricing and a project IRR of 30 – 45%

The Opportunity: A Perfect Storm of Failing Hotels

Uncompetitive hotels facing functional obsolescence fuel Solvida’s model for attainable senior living. The senior housing market is the opportunity of a lifetime as Baby Boomers age into retirement.
