Streamline Your Senior Housing Development with Cleveland Construction
As demand for senior housing continues to grow, developers face increasing pressure to deliver high-quality, cost-effective communities on time. Our design-build approach offers a smooth, efficient process that integrates design and construction under a single contract, allowing better coordination, faster project completion, and reduced construction costs.
Why Design-Build for Senior Housing?




Key Market Insights: The Growing Demand for Senior Housing
"The oldest baby boomers turn 80 in less than a year. And by 2030, the U.S. population 80 years and older is expected to increase by more than four million people to 18.8 million," reports The Wall Street Journal (WSJ). With demand outpacing supply, "more than 560,000 new units are needed to meet all the demand by 2030, but only 191,000 will be added at current development rates."
Despite high construction costs, developers who invest in senior housing today are positioning themselves ahead of an inevitable market shift. "We’ve never had a population pyramid that looks like this," said Arick Morton, chief executive of NIC MAP. The design-build model provides the flexibility and cost-efficiency necessary to navigate these challenges successfully.
