Conclusions
The most basic level of senior house is currently generating a similar return before capital costs when compared to an ordinary rental apartment building.
Vacancy losses in senior houses are high despite the low turnover rate. This appears to be the area in which senior house owners have the greatest potential for increasing the rate of return.
