Why Connecticut

A Premium Northeast Senior Housing Market with High Private-Pay Rates

  • Proximity to NYC drives demand from families seeking quality senior care near major urban centers
  • DPH licensing is well-established — Connecticut has one of the more streamlined COO processes in New England
  • Hartford, Stamford, New Haven, and the Shoreline each offer distinct investment profiles
  • High barriers to entry protect existing licensed communities and support premium valuations

Connecticut Licensing

Understanding Connecticut's Senior Housing Licensing Framework

Connecticut uses a dual-licensing model: the facility (residential care home) and the services agency are licensed separately through DPH. This unique structure is important for buyers to understand before closing. Haven guides buyers through Connecticut's specific COO requirements and the ALSA licensing process.

Haven's advisory team guides buyers and sellers through every stage of the Connecticut Department of Public Health (DPH) change-of-ownership process, ensuring no surprises derail your transaction timeline.
