In this episode of the RAL Room Assisted Living Podcast, Dr. Alex sits down with James Contreras, a nurse practitioner turned residential assisted living operator with four homes in Los Angeles County. 🏡
James shares how his medical background, heart for seniors, and focus on relationships and referrals helped him scale successfully over time.
Here’s what we cover:
✅ Transitioning from healthcare provider to RAL operator
✅ Why relationship-building is the foundation of long-term success
✅ How referrals from families, hospitals, and SNFs drive occupancy
✅ Honest tours, setting expectations, and under-promising to over-deliver
✅ Creative strategies like seller financing to acquire and scale homes
👉 If you’re looking to grow occupancy, build trust in your community, and scale your RAL business the right way, this episode is a must-listen.
