$62,000 a Month with Independent Living Homes

When Angie first came to me, all she knew is that she wanted to do an independent living senior community. That was it. She’d been networking, exploring ideas, but didn’t have a clear roadmap or a plan for her existing property, which came with high overhead.

That’s where MHC Consulting stepped in.


Using my proven A-to-Z framework, we had to make real, strategic adjustments, starting with her target population. The home she already had wasn’t going to support just anyone; to make the numbers work and the business sustainable, we had to pivot toward high-income independent seniors who could afford the level of luxury and service her property demanded.


Structuring Home #1 for Profit and Impact

Many people jump into senior living thinking they can make it work without adjusting the details but overhead doesn’t lie. For Angie, that meant we had to carefully align:

  • Pricing: $3,200–$4,500 per month to cover costs and ensure profit

  • Population: Independent seniors who want upscale, worry-free living

  • Services: Everything from resident engagement to premium amenities had to match expectations

By structuring her first home this way, Angie didn’t just survive but she created a blueprint for scalable success.


Expanding to a Portfolio of Five Homes

Once Home #1 was stable and profitable, we used the same framework to expand. Today, Angie has five independent living homes across Alexandria and Vienna, each serving high-income seniors with a focus on comfort, independence, and community.


The keys to scaling her business:

  • Market research to find neighborhoods with residents who match the target population

  • Operational systems that replicate across properties

  • Strategic marketing & SEO to attract the right residents consistently

  • Financial oversight to ensure every home hits profitability targets
