Vision & Strategic Objectives
Working with the key business stakeholders, we build group consensus inform key decision making. This process aligns mission and vision with objectives, goals and the value proposition for a village, which the entire organisation can understand and embrace.
- Define the purpose of the village community
- Define the Operators and Village business and brand values
- Align with Operator mission and long-term goals
Market & Demographic Analysis
During this phase, we partner with specialists we have years of experience with identifying quantitative and qualitative demand in your market area. Together we develop and assess the market attributes that will address the Operators vision and strategic objectives.
- Establish demographic target market or segment
- Competitive analysis
- Current and future demand trends
Site & Asset Assessment
Before embarking on the development of a senior living community, it is crucial to assess the existing site and assets. A thorough assessment ensures informed decision-making on land utilisation, infrastructure improvements, and the potential for renovation or redevelopment of existing buildings. This phase helps determine feasibility and highlights opportunities and challenges that may impact project success. The influence the site can have on the outcome of any village cannot be overstated.
- Review land size, shape, topography, access, infrastructure, public transport, surrounding area attributes and amenities
- Assess existing buildings: current condition, compliance, long term maintenance, adaptability
Land Use & Phasing Strategy
Strategic land use planning is vital for creating a sustainable and efficient senior living community. By carefully assessing zoning regulations and development opportunities, operators can optimise land utilisation while ensuring that staged expansion aligns with market demand and financial planning. Thoughtful phasing helps balance growth with risk and overall investment viability.
- Zoning constraints and opportunities.
- Staging development to align with demand and capital.
- Mixed-use integration (e.g., subdivision, retail, restaurant, medical, wellness).
Built Form & Design Principles
We lead a multi disciplined Design Team to determine unit typologies, unit site placement, desired common amenity spaces and configuration within a new building or in a redevelopment/ remodel scenario.
- Layout for community connection, accessibility, and future expansion
- Building typologies: ILUs- villas & apartments, memory care, vertical vs horizontal
- Common Amenities: industry benchmarking and demographic right sizing
- Sustainability and ESG considerations
Operations & Services Alignment
A successful senior living community must integrate its built environment with operational and service models. From care provision to hospitality and maintenance, aligning services with design ensures efficiency and enhances resident experience. We use best practices for service delivery, staffing models, and technology enablement to support long-term adaptability.
- Service delivery model integration
- Staffing models and efficiency for right sizing
- Technology enablement and future adaptability
Financial Modelling
A Master plan is only viable if it aligns with the financial feasibility. Robust financial modelling allows Operators to evaluate projected development costs, revenue streams, and long-term return on investment. Here, we outline key financial considerations, including feasibility assessments, revenue projections, and multi-year cash flow planning.
- Development P & L
- Revenue projections
- Return on investment, 10 year+ cashflows and “Owners Interest” modelling
