How To: Access Active Adult Supply Data | NIC MAP Vision Help Center

Demand for a product to serve older Americans who wish to live in a multifamily setting with lower acuity needs than today’s senior housing offerings is on the rise. NIC MAP Vision, in partnership with NIC, has identified Enhanced Lifestyle Residential (commonly known as Active Adult) as another opportunity to expand inventory coverage and market transparency.

For purposes of underwriting and comparisons, there has been no widely accepted definition or data set of market fundamentals in this burgeoning real estate asset class. The proposed definition, incorporating the findings of the NIC Board of Directors Active Adult Working Group and NIC Future Leader’s Council (FLC) is:

“Age-eligible, market rate, multifamily rental properties that are lifestyle focused; general operations do not provide meals”

As result of this rise of demand for Active Adult communities, NIC MAP Vision now includes access to Active Adult Inventory data in the combined NIC MAP Vision platform and NIC MAP portal. The inventory data includes approximately 230 Active Adult communities across the United States. At present, the data includes address, total AA unit counts, and operator information. Performance data, including rate and occupancy metrics, are currently being collected and will be added to the NIC MAP Vision combined platform in early 2023.

Users can access the Active Adult inventory data in (1) Site Detail Reports, (2) Explorer, (3) Property Advisor Reports, and the (4) NIC MAP Batch Reports tab.
