Senior Housing: Trouble in the Golden Years
The present recession has put extraordinary pressure on senior housing providers.
Several factors have driven occupancy rates well below 90%:
- The family home’s value has declined and is difficult to sell
- Retirement portfolios have eroded
- Adult children have lost their jobs and moved back in with their retirement aged parents
- Full Assessment
- Economic uncertainty is influencing the decision to move
Like many of BBK’s clients, your firm may be facing financial trouble. We have helped clients restructure and/or manage their businesses through the challenges of an economic downturn and have seen several common trends:
- Lower than planned occupancy generates low revenue levels
- Balance sheets contain too much leverage due to overly aggressive growth expectations
- Employee expenses are not in-line with reduced revenue and may require rationalization
- Poor liquidity necessitates focused cash management while operational changes are implemented
BBK’s unique approach - integrating financial and operational services to deliver comprehensive, hands-on solutions – has been the foundation for remarkable successes. If your firm is facing these challenges, it makes sense to schedule a brief exploratory call where we can discuss how these concerns or challenges could impact you.
