There simply aren’t enough senior living communities to meet the growing demand—and that gap is only widening.1
By investing in this essential sector, we aim to deliver monthly income, plus growth and help create the dignified, high-quality care people deserve in their golden years.
America is entering a historic demographic shift.
Nearly 10,000 adults become 80+ every day, the age group most likely to require senior housing, assisted living, and memory care.
This is not a short-term trend. It is a multi-decade demographic reality driven by longevity. The result is a growing demand for middle-market, professionally managed, empathetic senior housing communities.
America is not building enough senior housing.
Creating a widening supply-demand imbalance across the industry.
*Please see footer for sources.
It’s clear that America is aging rapidly, and senior housing isn’t keeping up with demand.1
At Aquinas Senior Living, we see more than a market opportunity. We see a human need. We acquire senior living facilities from regional operators and family-run businesses and transform them—upgrading environments, enhancing amenities, and adding innovative technologies and services that small, independent facilities often cannot provide.
Led by a seasoned team with deep expertise in both real estate and senior care, Aquinas opens the door for everyday investors to participate in institutional-grade real estate and the accelerating demand for quality senior housing.
Two of our (7) seven communities.
Offering care that supports mind, body, and spirit, helping residents feel valued and whole.
Balancing independence, support, and relationships for a well-ordered, fulfilling life.
Illuminating each resident’s inner light through meaningful connections and activities.
These principles guide every decision we make — from the design of our communities, to the integration of innovative technologies, and the daily interactions between residents and staff — ensuring that our care honors every season of life.
Scheduled monthly income of $83.33 or $1,000 per year over five years.*
Investors are also scheduled to participate in the growth of their original investment, if any, when Aquinas sells its portfolio, or goes public by listing its shares on a major stock exchange.

A shared mission to care for the most vulnerable.
Merakey is a leading non-profit provider of developmental, behavioral health, and education services. With a revenue of nearly $800 million in Fiscal Year 2025, more than 8,000 employees provided support to nearly 40,000 individuals and families throughout 12 states across the country.
We believe that through its wholly owned subsidiary, Merakey’s partnership with Aquinas' vision for high-quality senior care empowers our business model and mission.
Our model is built on three fundamentals: the right communities, the right people, and the right partners. We put them together to create places where seniors thrive and caregivers want to build careers.
We purchase underperforming Class B and C senior living communities that are structurally sound, but need improvements.
Our process targets facilities which are priced below replacement cost, have room for value-adding modernizations, and exhibit strong local demand.
These facilities are typically owned by small regional operators, are family businesses, or owned by individuals who may lack access to capital for growth or are ready to transition ownership due to retirement, succession challenges, or burnout.
We aim to build environments where the best caregivers want to build their careers.
Becoming the best place to work helps us attract and retain strong teams, deliver better care, and drive operational excellence across our communities—which we believe contributes to higher demand.
Our partnerships bring hospital-grade capabilities into mid-market communities:
Traditional care waits for incidents to happen. Teton shifts the focus to prevention, alerting staff to subtle changes in behavior or wellbeing, before they turn into emergencies.
For many families, senior care isn’t optional—it’s essential. That’s why well-operated senior housing often outperforms other types of commercial real estate.1
Even during downturns, the demand for high-quality senior living and compassionate care remains strong.
Many senior living properties are owned by regional operators, individuals, or families without a succession plan. This creates a steady pipeline of acquisition opportunities ideally suited to our hands-on strategy. We focus on buying, upgrading, and professionally operating these facilities to unlock long-term value.
Sometimes the best opportunities are right in your own backyard.
Founded and operated in the Mid-Atlantic, Aquinas Senior Living targets higher-income counties across this region, where demand for quality senior care is rising.
We know this area deeply, and in our view, few competitors focus on upgrading mid-tier senior living facilities—and the care they provide—the way we do.
By combining local insight, operational excellence, and compassionate care, Aquinas Senior Living offers a unique opportunity for investors and the seniors we serve.
With the proceeds of this raise, we plan to continue building our portfolio of senior living communities, which already includes seven (7) locations.

Why invest in startups?
Regulation CF allows investors to invest in startups and early-growth companies. This is different from helping a company raise money on Kickstarter; with Regulation CF Offerings, you arenʼt buying products or merchandise - you are buying a piece of a company and helping it grow.
How much can I invest?
Accredited investors can invest as much as they want. But if you are NOT an accredited investor, your investment limit depends on either your annual income or net worth, whichever is greater. If the number is less than $124,000, you can only invest 5% of it. If both are greater than $124,000 then your investment limit is 10%.
How do I calculate my net worth?
To calculate your net worth, just add up all of your assets and subtract all of your liabilities (excluding the value of the personʼs primary residence). The resulting sum is your net worth.
What are the tax implications of an equity crowdfunding investment?
We cannot give tax advice, and we encourage you to talk with your accountant or tax advisor before making an investment.
Who can invest in a Regulation CF Offering?
Individuals over 18 years of age can invest.
What do I need to know about early-stage investing?
Are these investments risky? There will always be some risk involved when investing in a startup or small business. And the earlier you get in the more risk that is usually present. If a young company goes out of business, your ownership interest could lose all value. You may have limited voting power to direct the company due to dilution over time. You may also have to wait about five to seven years (if ever) for an exit via acquisition, IPO, etc. Because early-stage companies are still in the process of perfecting their products, services, and business model, nothing is guaranteed. Thatʼs why startups should only be part of a more balanced, overall investment portfolio.
When will I get my investment back?
The Series C Preferred Stock (the "Shares") of Aquinas Senior Living (the "Company") are not publicly-traded. As a result, the shares cannot be easily traded or sold. As an investor in a private company, you typically look to receive a return on your investment under the following scenarios: The Company gets acquired by another company. The Company goes public (makes an initial public offering). In those instances, you receive your pro-rata share of the distributions that occur, in the case of acquisition, or you can sell your shares on an exchange. These are both considered long-term exits, taking approximately 5-10 years (and often longer) to see the possibility for an exit. It can sometimes take years to build companies. Sometimes there will not be any return, as a result of business failure.
What is Aquinas Senior Living's implied valuation?
This offering is an income-producing preferred equity instrument, not a traditional growth equity investment. Investors should evaluate this offering primarily on the basis of the dividend yield and the company's ability to sustain dividend payments, rather than on implied company valuation.
Can I sell my shares?
Shares sold via Regulation Crowdfunding offerings have a one-year lockup period before those shares can be sold under certain conditions. The exceptions are sales to: (i) to the Company; (ii) to an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act; (iii) as part of an offering registered under the Securities Act with the SEC; or (iv) to a member of the Investorʼs family or the equivalent, to a trust controlled by the Investor, to a trust created for the benefit of a member of the family of the Investor or equivalent, or in connection with the death or divorce of the Investor or other similar circumstance.
Exceptions to limitations on selling shares during the one-year lockup period: In the event of death, divorce, or similar circumstance, shares can be transferred to:
What happens if a company does not reach their funding target?
If a company does not reach their minimum funding target, all funds will be returned to the investors after the close of the offering.
How can I learn more about a company's offering?
All available disclosure information can be found on the landing pages for our Regulation Crowdfunding offering.
What if I change my mind about investing?
You can cancel your investment at any time, for any reason, until 48 hours prior to a closing occurring. If youʼve already funded your investment and your funds are in escrow, your funds will be promptly refunded to you upon cancellation. To submit a request to cancel your investment please email: info@dealmakersecurities.com
How do I keep up with how the company is doing?
At a minimum, the company will be filing with the SEC and posting on itʼs website an annual report, along with certified financial statements. Those should be available 120 days after the fiscal year end. If the company meets a reporting exception, or eventually has to file more reported information to the SEC, the reporting described above may end. If these reports end, you may not continually have current financial information about the company.
What relationship does the company have with DealMaker Securities?
DealMaker Securities is serving as the intermediary for this offering. Once an offering ends, there is no guarantee that DealMaker Securities will have a relationship with the company. The company may continue its relationship with DealMaker Securities for additional offerings in the future. DealMaker Securitiesʼ affiliates may also provide one.
