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

information about the activities and

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

that ASHA will be there to help lead

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.
