Supply and demand dynamics within the seniors housing sector are at a crossroads, according to the Emerging Trends in Real Estate 2026 report produced by PwC and the Urban Land Institute. Like most commercial real estate property types, new supply is constrained due to increasing financing and construction costs. However, demand for senior living units continues to grow.

The National Investment Center for Seniors Housing & Care (NIC) expects that the limited new supply and steady demand will drive the average seniors housing occupancy rate above 90 percent in 2026, potentially reaching the highest occupancy rate reported in the 20 years that NIC MAP has tracked this data.
