LOS ANGELES — Seniors housing development costs are expected to rise modestly in 2020, with labor and land the primary drivers of higher expenditure, according to research from Los Angeles-based CBRE. Total cost for a seniors housing development rose by 6.4 percent in 2019 to an average of $317 per square foot.

Hard costs (e.g. labor, site work, foundation, building shell construction, …
