How To Open An Assisted Living FacilityIdeal Assisted Living Facility Property Types
Ideal House and Apartment Building Types for ALF Conversion. Split plan houses and houses with “attached” mother-in-law suites are usually perfect for Assisted Living Facility conversion. The extra room is usually used as an office or living quarters for the CNA. Sometimes though, you can charge premium “rent” for the suite or room if there is a den or other spare room that will work for the CNA's and ALF’s office. Fenced in backyards are usually required per state regulations, but should be considered a must. Landscaping for safety and accessibility should be your first thought when figuring out what to do with your backyard, but privacy and tranquility should be right up there too. You want to be able to make as much money from your real estate as possible, right? Open assisted living facilities located near hospitals and large medical complexes do very well. If you decide to get specialty licenses for your Assisted living facility. ALFs with pools bring their owners more money. ALFs with pools don’t just make more money because of the pools alone, the pools are often used for water-rehab and exercise activities. Most states require special safety regulations and measures be followed when an ALF has a pool or is located on a body of water.
In Florida, and many other hurricane-prone states, ALFs are required to have hurricane evacuation plans. Other states have disaster plans specific to the disasters that hit them frequently. Check your state’s regulations on the State-byState Resource Page. Using Florida as an example again, different areas have to evacuate sooner than others. ALFs in non-evacuation or flood zones are more attractive and make better selling points. Consider this ALF administrator’s reply to a question about a “cheaper” ALF across town made by a misinformed, but, potentially high paying future ALF resident… “Yes, ALFs are cheaper on the other side of town. They’ll also be under 20 feet of water if a hurricane hits within 100 miles of here. She followed up with, “Now then, when would you like to move in with us?”
