This special section of National
Real Estate Investor features
the American Seniors Housing
Association’s (ASHA) 18th annual
compilation of the nation’s larg-
est seniors housing owners and
managers.
To ensure the accuracy of the 2011
ASHA 50, ASHA assembled a list of
prospective ranked companies from
every available source. A senior offi-
cer from each firm was asked to pro-
vide their current holdings as of June
1, 2011. Data was also used from out-
side sources deemed reliable, such as
public filings. Companies listed in the
ASHA 50 are not required to be mem-
bers of ASHA, although most firms
that appear in this year’s rankings are
ASHA members.
For purposes of this survey, seniors
housing units include independent liv-
ing units and assisted living units, as
well as memory care/Alzheimer’s units
and skilled nursing beds, which are
part of a larger retirement living com-
plex (such as a CCRC), and include
rental, entrance fee units designed and
operated exclusively for adults aged
55 years and over. Units where resi-
dents receive Section 8 or equivalent
rental subsidies, single-family homes,
hotel rooms, stand-alone skilled nurs-
ing beds, or mobile home units and
pads are not included. Additionally,
the ASHA 50 rankings do not include
properties where more than 30% of the
units are licensed for skilled nursing.
Respondents were requested not
to report properties owned indirectly
through ownership of shares in anoth-
er company and were instructed not to
include properties leased from other
owners for purposes of calculating the
ASHA 50 owners list.
The ASHA 50 was compiled and
analyzed by Krystalle Campo and
David Schless of ASHA, who express
their appreciation to the industry
leaders for their participation in this
annual effort.
In addition to the ASHA 50 rank-
ings and analysis of the results, this
section includes a listing of the lead-
ership, members and employees
of the American Seniors Housing
Association.
For those readers interested in more

resources of the American Seniors
Housing Association, please visit our

OVERVIEWThis year’s ASHA 50 survey was con-
ducted as of June 1, 2011, with several
large industry transactions ref lected
in this year’s rankings. The indus-
try continues to hold its own in a
challenging environment where the
single-family housing market remains
depressed and the economic recovery
is anything but robust. Construction
levels of new senior apartments,
independent living and assisted liv-
ing residences, Alzheimer’s/memory
care facilities, and continuing care
retirement communities (CCRCs)
remain very modest nationally, and
most of the companies represented
in this year’s ASHA 50 rankings are
well known to those who follow the
industry.
For more detailed operating
metrics on the seniors housing indus-
try, construction trend analysis,
and other practical resources about
private pay seniors housing, please

ASHA 50
Early on, the seniors housing
industry was so small that its
leaders fit comfortably around
a conference room table for strategy
sessions. That image stands in sharp
contrast to today’s organization that
evolved from those first meetings as the
American Seniors Housing Association
marks its 20th anniversary.
The group has grown rapidly along
with an industry that has experienced
dramatic changes over the last two
decades. The seniors housing industry
today offers consumers a variety of liv-
ing arrangements.
The once widely accepted idea that
most elderly persons will eventually
live in a nursing home is fading away
as new models of seniors housing con-
tinue to emerge.
No longer just a mom-and-pop
industry, seniors housing has become
a major asset class in the commercial
real estate sector that attracts insti-
tutional investors and professional
operators alike. The industry now also
has a robust presence on Capitol Hill,
advocating policies for seniors and
their housing providers.
“ASHA has allowed the industry to
speak with one voice,” says Bill Kaplan,
chairman of Senior Lifestyle Corp.,
and ASHA chairman from 2002-2004.
EARLY Roots
In 1990, the National Multi Housing
Council (NMHC), an apartment
industry group, established a Seniors
Housing Committee. Seniors housing
executives wanted their own group
because even though the niche busi-
ness fit nicely with the apartment
sector, it also exhibited some unique
qualities.
In particular, seniors housing offered
its residents services, which presented a
distinct set of management issues.
David Schless was hired in 1991
to run the NMHC’s Seniors Housing
Committee. In 1992, the committee’s
name was changed to the American
Seniors Housing Association. “It was a
big advantage to have NMHC behind
us,” says Schless, who continues to
lead ASHA today as its president.
Schless also credits a handful of
seniors housing executives whose pio-
neering efforts were instrumental in
ASHA’s formation. “When I think of
ASHA, the word that comes to mind is
leadership,” he says.
A few important names from the
early days include Bill Elliott of Angeles
Housing Concepts, the founding
chairman of ASHA, and Bill Colson
of Holiday Retirement (see sidebar).
“We’ve had wonderfully talented lead-
ers,” says Schless, noting their dedica-
tion to the success of the industry.
In turn, ASHA executives past and
present are quick to praise Schless for
his organizational skills and guidance
over the last 20 years. “Dave has been
creative and adaptable,” notes Bill
Pettit, who is slated to become ASHA
chairman in 2012.
Pettit is president of Seattle-based
Merrill Gardens, an assisted living
operator. “David understands where
we’ve been and where we’re headed.”
ASHA’s original founders sought
to create something bigger than
themselves, says Noah Levy, man-
aging director of seniors housing at
Prudential Real Estate Investors, and
ASHA chairman from 2004-2006.
They were humble business opera-
tors who recognized that their mission

was to take care of seniors, adds Levy.
“They had a spirit of cooperation that
is still part of the organization.”
ASHA membership grew through-
out the 1990s from about 20 compa-
nies to more than 200, though the
emphasis was always on recruiting the
most active industry players.
ASHA focused on independent and
assisted living properties, and con-
tinuing care retirement communities.
(ASHA does not advocate for the nurs-
ing home industry.)
The future looked bright for the
industry, but challenges were still
ahead. The demographics of an aging
population favored seniors housing
in the long run, but the industry was
still fragmented. A building boom in
assisted living in the late 1990s that
fizzled also hurt the industry’s image.
Small operators dominated the
industry and best practices were not
yet standard. But ASHA members
realized the importance of delivering
a consistent message about seniors
housing to both consumers and policy
makers alike.
ASHA mAtureS
In 2001, ASHA split from NMHC. “We
needed to become our own group,”
recalls Kaplan of Senior Lifestyle
Corp. Most of the major companies
in the industry were part of the group
by then. And ASHA began holding its
own meetings with programs tailored
to the seniors market. “It was really
significant,” adds Kaplan.
ASHA was never designed to be
a large organization, however. The
organization’s Executive Board is
comprised predominantly of senior
officers from companies that develop,
own and/or operate the full spectrum
of seniors housing properties.
The association currently has about
350 members and holds three meet-
ings a year. But ASHA doesn’t operate
like a traditional trade organization.
The group doesn’t publish a magazine
or sponsor a trade show.
ASHA doesn’t have state affiliates
either. Instead, it gathers local infor-
mation for members on issues such as
state regulations. “We are always trying
to help our members,” says Schless.
Industry data has been a priority at
ASHA too, since so little information
was available on seniors housing at the
Retirement Companies of America extends its sincere congratulations to
Jim Moore of Moore Diversifi ed Services for his longstanding service to the
seniors housing industry and highly distinguished career achievements.
We also congratulate David Schless and the American Seniors Housing Association
on its 20th year anniversary and its commitment to serving the industry
with pride and distinction.
CONGRATULATIONS
outset of the organization.
In 1992, the group published its
first State of Seniors Housing report. It
included the findings of the first major
industry study of financial and opera-
tional performance measures, such as
occupancies and labor costs.
Now produced annually by a con-
sortium of seniors housing groups, the
report has been fine-tuned over the
years. It is a well-established resource
to help building managers and owners
understand the current seniors hous-
ing market. “ASHA provides operator-
driven research,” says Pettit of Merrill
Gardens. “That’s important.”
Two groups ASHA collaborates
with on research are the National
Investment Center for the Seniors
Housing & Care Industry (NIC) and
LeadingAge, which represents not-for-
profits.
A new study now under way, spear-
headed by the Center for Retirement
Research at Boston College, is closely
examining the affordability of seniors
housing. Prior research suggests that
the income level of seniors who live
in seniors housing is lower than most
people believe, demonstrating that the
housing model is more affordable than
many think.
AdvocAcy in Action
ASHA has long been a leading indus-
try voice on Capitol Hill. In 1993, Peg
Thompson of Thompson White &
Associates, a seniors housing provider,
testified on behalf of ASHA before the
House Ways & Means Committee.
ASHA sought clarification on whether
the costs of assisted living services were
eligible for the tax deduction available
for medical expenses.
ASHA also has established a Seniors
Housing Political Action Committee
(PAC) designed to support and edu-
cate candidates on issues relating to
the seniors housing and care indus-
tries. By 2008, contributions to the
A18 | NREI August /September 2011
ASHA 50
ASHA MileStoneS1990
The National Multi Housing Council (NMHC) establishes a Seniors Housing Committee.
1991 David Schless is hired to run NMHC’s
Seniors Housing Committee.
Bill Elliott of Angeles Housing Concepts is named first chairman of Seniors Housing Committee.
1992 The NMHC Seniors Housing Committee is renamed the American Seniors Housing Association (ASHA).
ASHA produces the first State of Seniors Housing report on industry performance.
1995 ASHA helps pass the Housing for Older Persons Act, altering
requirements of the Fair Housing Act for seniors housing.
1996 ASHA creates the Seniors Housing Political Action Committee
to advocate for the industry with policy makers.
2001 ASHA is spun off from NMHC.
2002 ASHA expands its annual rankings to include the
50 largest owners and managers, a strong indication the industry is blossoming.
2004 ASHA and the National Investment Center adopt uniform
definitions of key seniors housing categories for data collection efforts.
Contributions to the Seniors Housing PAC top $100,000 for the first time.
2006 ASHA leads successful legislative effort to make permanent
tax rules governing entrance fee deposits at continuing care communities.
2008 Seniors Housing PAC contributions top $500,000.
2011 ASHA conducts studies on adult children of seniors housing
residents, and on industry thought leaders. Both studies focus on the “next generation” of seniors housing.
PAC topped $500,000.
“ASHA’s most important job is to
help policy makers understand the
importance of the industry and the
role it plays in providing housing
for the elderly in the country,” says
Patricia Will, co-founder and presi-
dent at Belmont Village Senior Living
in Houston.
Will, who served as ASHA chairman
from 2008-2010, recently participated
in a U.S. Senate Aging Committee
roundtable on issues related to assisted
living quality and oversight.
A big ASHA victory came in 2006
with the passage of legislation that
made permanent tax rules govern-
ing entrance fee deposits at continu-
ing care retirement communities
(CCRCs). Previously, seniors who
moved to CCRCs were taxed on their
entrance fee deposit.
ASHA successfully argued that res-
idents of CCRCs were paying privately
for their own long-term care instead
of relying on government programs,
and therefore should not be penalized
with a tax.
Looking ahead, there are a num-
ber of issues facing the industry. For
example, what kind of housing will
baby boomers want? “The product will
change,” emphasizes Schless.
Another issue that must be resolved
is the future of the two government-
sponsored enterprises (GSEs), Fannie
Mae and Freddie Mac.
While they are most closely identi-
fied with the beleaguered single-family
housing market, the GSEs continue to
provide a vitally important source of
capital for the seniors housing indus-
try. And their loan portfolios have per-
formed quite well.
“We want some government
involvement in the secondary mort-
gage market to insure the availabil-
ity of credit at all times,” says Schless.
“That’s a big issue for us.”

PAST ASHA CHAirMEN
NREI August /September 2011 | A19
No name is tied to seniors hous-
ing more closely than that of
William E. Colson. Known
as Bill to his friends and colleagues,
Colson passed away in 2007 at the age of
66. But he left behind an important leg-
acy as an industry pioneer and pivotal
leader in the American Seniors Housing
Association (ASHA).
For many years, Colson led Holiday
Retirement Corp in Salem, Ore. The
company started more than 40 years
ago with a single senior living property.
Colson worked with his father Hugh,
and was joined by Dan Baty, who helped
run Holiday, and now is chairman of
Emeritus Corp.
In 2007, Holiday was sold to the
Fortress Investment Group for an esti-
mated $6.9 billion. At the time of the
sale, Holiday employed 10,000 people
and operated approximately 300 build-
ings for seniors.
Holiday specialized in indepen-
dent living communities. The projects,
designed to be affordable to a broad
swath of middle-class seniors, intro-
duced consumers to a new kind of hous-
ing alternative.
Seniors housing offered some servic-
es, as well as opportunities for social-
ization. “Bill really helped to educate
the public,” says Pat Kennedy, a former
Holiday executive and longtime friend.
Early on, Colson recognized the
importance of supporting the industry.
It could only grow and attract capital
through an organization like ASHA. “He
helped to shape the group,” says ASHA
President David Schless. Colson was a
regular on the CEO panel. “Everyone
wanted to hear what he had to say.”
Colson willingly shared his knowl-
edge about building operations with
other industry executives.
Colson liked to say, “You’ll never go
wrong by doing the right thing.” That
philosophy guided his business and
an industry, says Schless. Bill’s spirit
lives on today in ASHA, which created
the William E. Colson Distinguished
Leadership Award in 2008 in recogni-
tion of his profound impact on ASHA
and the seniors housing profession.

“In the past 20
years, ASHA has
provided a unique
forum for indus-
try leaders to work
together to advance
the industry. The
organization has been focused, well-
run, and highly effective in executing
its mission. I, and many others in our
profession, marvel at the efficiency of
the staff and the tremendous value of
ASHA membership. You can be sure
that ASHA will be there to help lead
the way for many years to come.”
Patricia WillCo-founder and President
Belmont Village Senior Living
ASHA Chairman (2008-2010)
“ASHA has done
a terrific job cre-
ating an aware-
ness of the seniors
housing industry.
ASHA advocates in
Washington, D.C. for our members,
for our employees, and for seniors.
ASHA also is an important source
of research. ASHA is conducting
research on what the next genera-
tion of seniors will want in housing.
We are going to be able to provide
creative and innovative housing solu-
tions for seniors.”
William F. ThomasOwner
Senior Star Living
ASHA Chairman (2006-2008)
“The determina-
tion to build a
polit ica l action
committee (PAC)
consistent with
the goals of ASHA
has been a cornerstone of the orga-
nization. Annual giving to the PAC
today is about $500,000 versus about
$40,000 just six years ago. We have a
way to address government policies
that are important to our country.”
Noah LevyManaging Director, Seniors Housing
Prudential Real Estate Investors
ASHA Chairman (2004-2006)
“The growth of
ASHA mirrors
the growth of
the industry. But
ASHA is a strong
voice not only for
the industry, but also for our resi-
dents. Caring for seniors is one of the
most rewarding jobs, but also one of
the most challenging. ASHA supports
that effort.”
Bill KaplanChairman
Senior Lifestyle Corp.
ASHA Chairman (2002-2004)
“ASHA gave the
industry a voice.
Before that we had
no representation.
We really needed
our own group,
and we’ve been able to make a differ-
ence. ASHA members are willing to
share information. I can pick up the
phone and call a building operator,
ask a question, and get help. It’s been
an unbelievable ride.”
Mark SchulteDirector, former Chairman and CEO
Brookdale Senior Living
ASHA Chairman (2000-2002)
“One of the big-
gest contributions
ASHA has made to
the industry is the
establishment and
benchmarking of
industry data. Prior to ASHA’s
State of Seniors Housing report, there
was no data collection in the seniors
housing industry. Lenders were left
scratching their heads on what com-
parable expenses for food, housekeep-
ing and real estate taxes might be.”

ABOUT ASHA
The American Seniors Housing
Association (ASHA) was cre-
ated in 1991 by a number of
leading seniors housing providers
seeking an effective voice on Capitol
Hill. Today, ASHAÕs membership has
grown to approximately 350 compa-
nies that develop, operate, and finance
the entire spectrum of seniors hous-
ing. ASHAÕs membership owns and/or
manages more than 600,000 units of
senior apartments, independent living,
assisted living, memory care, and con-
tinuing care retirement communities.
Over the years, ASHAÕs members
have come to rely on the Association
for its expertise in three key areas: n Federal advocacy; n Seniors housing research; and n Networking and exchange of
strategic business information.
Federal AdvocacyA hallmark of ASHA is its strong com-
mitment to federal advocacy on behalf
of the seniors housing industry. ASHA
advocates on a range of issues impact-
ing seniors housing, including capital
formation, tax policy, federal over-
sight, legal reform, housing policy, and
employment policy.
ASHA brings a seasoned and highly
respected government affairs team to
represent the industry on Capitol Hill.
Our federal advocacy efforts are sup-
ported by the Seniors Housing Political
Action Committee, one of the fastest
growing federal PACs in the health
care and real estate sectors. The Seniors
Housing PAC gives the industry a
strong voice on Capitol Hill by provid-
ing support to federal candidates who
are responsive to our issues and influ-
ential on matters of vital concern.
ASHAÕs federal advocacy program
is guided by the following CORE
principles:
Consumer DrivenÑEnsure that the
needs and preferences of seniors hous-
ing consumers continues to be met
through regulatory oversight at the
state and local level, where it is most
effective.
Owner/Operator DrivenÑPromote a
favorable business climate that sup-
ports quality, competition, innovation,
and long-term investment in seniors
housing.
Resident Service DrivenÑSupport
research and national initiatives that
enable residents of seniors housing to
receive state-of-the-art services and
age with dignity in the setting of their
choice.
Employee DrivenÑEnsure that employ-
ees of seniors housing providers have
full access to competitive wages and
benefits and a work environment that
fosters job satisfaction and professional
growth.
Seniors Housing ResearchASHA is widely recognized for its
long-standing leadership in advanc-
ing research to support seniors hous-
ing professionals. From in-depth sta-
tistical analyses to succinct executive
summaries on topical issues, ASHAÕs
authoritative research efforts have
played a significant role in advancing
the seniors housing business for lend-
ers and investors as well as developers,
owners and operators.
Annual Research PublicationsÑEach
year, ASHA and its research partners
produce a range of research reports that
cover financial and operational perfor-
mance, construction trends, executive
compensation, state regulation, liabil-
ity insurance, health benefits, work-
ers compensation, and rankings of the
largest owners and managers of seniors
housing.
Special Issue Briefs/ Legal NotesÑ
ASHA distributes several special issue
briefs specifically tailored to provide
busy executives with concise informa-
tion on emerging legal, tax, financial,
health, and real estate issues impacting
seniors housing.
Major Research ProjectsÑASHA peri-
odically commissions major research
projects focused on unique aspects of
the seniors housing market. Coinciding
with its 20th anniversary this year, the
association has launched two forward-
looking studies that will shed light on
the next generation of seniors housing.
Currently available on ASHAÕs website
bookstore, Senior Living for the Next
Generation, Vol. I provides an insight-
ful glimpse into the mindset of the
experienced adult child. The second
volume of this research will focus on
data collected from industry thought
leaders.

ABOUT ASHANetworking and Exchange of Strategic Business Information ASHA hosts three meetings a year – an
Annual Meeting (held in January), a
Spring Executive Board Meeting, and
a Fall Meeting (held immediately prior
to the National Investment Conference
(NIC) meeting). ASHA meetings pro-
vide a unique opportunity for the
nation’s top seniors housing executives
to candidly exchange ideas and engage
in thoughtful debate about emerg-
ing issues facing the industry. ASHA
meetings feature the nation’s thought-
leaders from top colleges and univer-
sity’s, along with nationally recognized
speakers from the political and busi-
ness world.
Additionally, ASHA periodically
hosts special issue forums on a host of
timely issues impacting seniors hous-
ing. The forums are led by industry
experts and are expressly designed
to be highly interactive and thought-
provoking to ensure optimal benefit
for all participants.
