On our latest episode of The Move, Jarrod Daddis and I breakdown why healthcare real estate has been historically cycle resilient and is fundamentally different from other asset classes. It’s not about chasing the next Austin or Nashville — it's about understanding which markets have strong needs-based demand. As Jarrod so aptly puts it, "Everywhere in the United States has a healthcare need. Some of our best performing assets have been in markets that wouldn't be on the NFL city list, but they still have a defined need." 🎧 Listen to our full conversation: https://lnkd.in/gTYYmnet #Investment #Healthcare #RealEstate #CapitalAllocation

While other asset classes get hammered by volatility, healthcare real estate keeps steadily performing. Why? In our fourth episode of The Move, "The Asset Class That Doesn't Flinch," Michael Ray and I dig into what makes this sector so resilient. It comes down to one thing: needs-based demand. Unlike some other asset classes, healthcare facilities serve essential functions that don't evaporate when markets get choppy. We've seen this play out repeatedly — from 2008 to COVID to today's interest rate environment. Our strategy has always been simple: meet providers where they are, anticipate what's next, and invest in spaces that drive better outcomes. Whether it's medical outpatient buildings, senior living, or science & tech facilities, we're intentionally positioning for the demographic shifts that will define the next 20 years. This episode is worth a listen if you're thinking about portfolio resilience in uncertain times. 🎧 Listen here: https://lnkd.in/gcWhyVBb #HealthcareRealEstate #Leadership #Strategy #NexCore

I've been in healthcare long enough to see some real estate development projects succeed brilliantly — and others fail spectacularly. The difference usually comes down to one thing: the planning and design process. In this week's episode of On The Brink, I sat down with Steve Christoff, NexCore's Senior Vice President of Design and Innovation and an architect who's designed over 10 million square feet of healthcare facilities. Steve opened my eyes to how much money gets wasted on poor planning and design decisions made early in the process. The conversation reminded me why I'm so passionate about this work. Too many talented surgeons get burned by development projects that could have been amazing with a more strategic approach. Three things that stuck with me: ● 80% of projects start with overblown space estimates — wasting money from the start ● The best buildings are designed around workflows, not aesthetics, to drive efficiency ● Future-proofing isn't optional — it's essential for long-term success Steve's insights on creating spaces that actually work for surgeons and patients are invaluable. As he puts it, “great design doesn't cost more—it costs less when done right.” If you're considering an ASC project, this episode might save you from expensive mistakes down the road.

🎙️ New Episode Drop: The Move, Episode 4: “The Asset Class That Doesn’t Flinch” What is it about healthcare real estate that makes it such a resilient investment? As Michael Ray puts it, "in healthcare it's not about the real estate. It's about the work — the underlying service that is being delivered and facilitated by the real estate." From needs-based demand that doesn't disappear during downturns to the credit strength of long-term health system tenants, episode four is all about the factors that make healthcare real estate so predictably resilient. Key insights from Jarrod Daddis and Michael Ray’s conversation: - Why healthcare real estate proved resistant during COVID against all odds - The demographic shifts that create lasting investment opportunities across all markets - How the "barbell strategy" balances stability with growth potential For investors seeking stability in an uncertain market, this episode reveals why healthcare real estate is your smart and most strategic bet. 🎧 Listen now: https://lnkd.in/gC68j-ju #HealthcareRealEstate #TheMove #Investment #RealEstate

New Episode Alert: On The Brink with Carolyn Wilson 🎙️ In this week’s episode, "On The Brink of a Blueprint," we dive into the planning and design process that sets successful ASC projects apart from the rest. Carolyn sits down with Steve Christoff, NexCore's Senior Vice President of Design and Innovation, to demystify what smart planning really looks like — and how to avoid costly mistakes that derail projects. Key insights: - Great design actually costs less when done right - Start with outcomes and KPIs, not square footage — most initial estimates are 15-20% too large - Design for efficiency to drive productivity - Future-proof your investment by building flexibility into your space from day one Steve describes the collaborative approach that makes the difference: "Physicians are at the head of the table, and NexCore sits at the other end of the table and helps quarterback through something that we've done hundreds of times."

I had a great conversation with my friend and colleague, Carolyn Wilson, on the latest episode of her podcast, On The Brink. We discussed the challenges and opportunities at play in connection with financing the development of ambulatory surgery centers. A big misconception in this context is that there's only one way to structure these deals. The truth is, every project is unique, and the options are a lot broader than one might think. In the end, the optimal financing solution is the one that seeks to align specific business objectives with risk appetite of the underlying surgical group.
