Healthcare real estate is a niche market within the larger real estate market. Healthcare real estate or "Medical real estate" describes buildings, offices, and campuses leased to members or organizations within the healthcare community, but owned and operated by third party groups. There is a rising trend among hospitals, health care systems, and medical practitioners to embrace third party ownership and management of real estate. By using third party developers, they can preserve their capital resources for acute care needs and focus their attention on helping people, while passing on responsibility of building regulation and maintenance minutiae. Healthcare facilities have detailed technological and regulatory requirements. Even such building maintenance tasks as cleaning, heating and cooling are done differently in health care, with demanding sterilization and filtration needs. In addition to outsourcing building and management tasks, it's becoming increasingly attractive for hospitals to leave building ownership itself to someone else. The concept fits well with the current development trend pairing not-for-profit hospitals with for-profit physician groups as partners in new specialty facilities, such as The Heart Center of Indiana. Illinois, Texas, California and Florida accounted for a third of healthcare construction starts in 2007, though the practice of third party ownership is also rising among all metropolitan areas where space is at a premium. From an investor viewpoint, healthcare REITs as a group generally trade at a premium yield to other REIT categories. It is also considered one of the more stable sectors, along with higher education and government. During times of economic decline, health care real estate continues to grow. However, private equity investments are also available. Noyack Medical Partners is one of the largest private equity firms in the healthcare real estate sector that syndicates many of their investments as limited partnerships available to accredited investors. In 2008, several factors converged to drive healthcare real estate:
From Wikipedia under the
GNU Free Documentation License What's the medical and real estate sector like in Las Vegas? Also how is life in Vegas? Q. I'm a college student over at UCLA and I'm looking forward to my medical career in Vegas as well as living there on my own. I am wondering how life is like in Sin City. There's high crime and rude people, but it seems alright. I've been there a couple times and it seems pretty nice. Even so, I don't find gambling, clubbing, and whatnot appealing. Although... I do find Vegas buffets amazing! Anyway, also I'm wondering what's the medical field and real estate sector like? Will there be projected growth? I hear unemployment is in the double digits and alot of other bad things. That alone won't deter me though. Thanks. Asked by Look Its Jay - Thu Sep 17 05:39:21 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. The medical sector seems stable. Real estate is beginning to rise a bit from the really low prices a couple of months ago, but it is still good time to buy. Condos are especially low priced, although I would suggest finding a nice home in a quality neighborhood. Some real bargains are out there. My son got a 4 bdrm 3000 sq ft home that sold in 2004 for $460k for $135k !!! I don't think you can do that good right now, but it's still very much a buyer's market. As for living here. I am retired, so the employment situation is not a real concern. There have been hiring & wage freezes at state and university jobs. They have even required state workers to take 2 days a month unpaid furloughs. Still we're a bit better than Cali, right now.

How is the area at 610 loop and south main, specifically the new single family homes right after 610 going south on main in terms of safety and commute to the medical center; thanks Asked by Agent C - Fri Nov 7 11:03:20 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. It's not exactly the best neighborhood and it hasn't been for a long time but that is changing. That area of Houston is really old and back in the day it was not a good place but urban renewal is happening in that area. Out with the old and in with the new. I don't want to discourage you from buying a new home as there is tons of new construction in the medical center area. Also, there is a good metro and rail system in the medical center. Plus buying new you will be surrounded by other new home buyers and that's not cheap so there's a good chance that your neighbors will be just like you. I don't hear much about crime in that area anymore. If you can get a good deal on a new home in that area I say go for it but there are also some… [cont.] Answered by Sunny_1_ - Fri Nov 7 14:10:56 2008 What should I do to take advantage of the low interest rate in real estate?
Q. I have very good credit of around 780. My net worth is about a million and my house of around $250,000 in rural Indiana is payed off. I'm 51 years old medical professional and want to take advantage of the low interest rate. What should I do? I was thinking of adding a deck or even building a screened in porch. Perhaps maybe even do some long needed remodeling. But how do I take advantage of the bad economy and the low interest rate in my favor? And will it pay off in the "end". If housing prices stay flat I don't see the bother of adding on or remodeling. Asked by Mr. LOL - Sun Mar 22 18:00:59 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. Make sure you dont "overimprove", dont want to have the biggest house in the area! that is a grave error. Long needed remodeling, bringing your home up to current standards, and more importantly, making yourself comfortable, is money well spent! But I, would suck all the equity out the place, get the lowest rate you can, even a 3 or 5 yr ARM will do, now hold on just listen first! Take that capital and buy, buy, buy! Right now cash is king and you should be bidding aggressively on distressed and foreclosured properties in your area. Rent them 'til the market turns in 3-5 years at which time you resell for a hefty profit!! or if they're real "Cash-Cows" keep them as an additional source of retirement! Answered by col.
