Welltower Inc. (NYSE: WELL) is a S&P 500 healthcare REIT that owns and operates a portfolio of 2,000+ senior housing and wellness communities across the United States, United Kingdom, and Canada, primarily serving aging renters through a rental housing model. The company describes itself as an operating company in a real estate wrapper, combining real estate ownership with active property operations supported by a proprietary data science platform and its internal Welltower Business System.
The healthcare REIT subsector in which Welltower operates invests in real estate assets tied to the healthcare services industry, with senior housing operators leasing properties from the REIT under triple-net or RIDEA-style structures. Demographic tailwinds from the aging population in North America and Western Europe are a key structural driver for senior housing REITs. Welltower was incorporated in Delaware in 1970 and is headquartered in Toledo, Ohio.
