Care Property Invest is a Belgian real estate company that owns and rents out buildings designed for elderly care and assisted living. Its tenants are care operators — companies and nonprofits that run nursing homes, assisted living facilities, and similar services for older adults. It is one of the largest listed healthcare real estate investors in Belgium and the Netherlands.

The company makes money by collecting long-term rental income from its care facility tenants, which explains its very high gross margins near 97%. It operates primarily in Belgium and the Netherlands, with a portfolio of roughly 100 properties. Its moat comes from long-term lease contracts and the fact that healthcare real estate is a specialized, regulated market that is hard for new competitors to enter quickly. The main growth driver is Europe's aging population, which steadily increases demand for senior care facilities — but rising interest rates are a key risk, since real estate companies like this one rely heavily on borrowed money to fund new properties.
