The Capital Markets & Valuations closing session is a staple at the Fall Conference, offering a timely look at the forces shaping investment and pricing across seniors housing. This year, record transaction volume and intense competition are driving aggressive bidding and cap rate compression beyond traditional valuation benchmarks.
Join leaders from across the capital stack as they examine the growing gap between underwriting and market pricing, the influence of global capital, and how debt and equity strategies are evolving in a highly competitive environment. From REIT acquisition pipelines to private equity execution and real-time broker insights, this session delivers a clear view of where capital is flowing—and what it means for valuations ahead.
