California is the nation's #1 senior housing transaction market — driven by the largest 65+ population in the country, high private-pay rates, and significant barriers to entry that protect the value of existing licensed communities.
Haven sources senior housing transactions in every major California metro — from urban board-and-care homes to large assisted living campuses.
California's Residential Care Facilities for the Elderly (RCFE) are licensed by the Community Care Licensing Division (CDSS) under Title 22 regulations. The licensing process is California's most significant barrier to entry — and the primary reason licensed California communities command a premium at sale.
Haven's advisory team guides buyers and sellers through every stage of the CDSS change-of-ownership process, ensuring no surprises derail your transaction timeline.
The most common California senior housing asset. Residential-zoned, lower acquisition cost, and high availability — ideal for first-time buyers and owner-operators.
Commercially-licensed facilities with higher NOI potential. Institutional buyers and portfolio operators target large RCFEs in high-demand metro submarkets.
California RCFEs serving residents with dementia require a Special Care Dementia designation. These assets command strong private-pay premiums statewide.
Regulated under the California Department of Social Services. Complex licensing — Haven provides expert advisory support for CCRC acquisitions and sales.
From first inquiry to CDSS-cleared close, Haven manages every step of the California senior housing acquisition or sale process.
