The senior population is growing faster than any other age group in America. Families are choosing to keep their loved ones at home instead of moving them into senior care. That’s fueling the aging in place industry, projected to grow 12–15% annually for the next 15 years. From stairlifts to ramps, the demand is massive — and mostly unmet. Back in 2010, Dave Pazgan built the first and largest aging-in-place franchise. Among his top franchisees were Gordon and Jennifer, who later sold their portfolio and noticed something big: the market’s exploding, but most brands can’t keep up. The three of them are now building Liftology — a new model designed to meet today’s surge in senior demand. Stairlift & ramp business avoids the hiring treadmill of senior care, and supplier access and technical know-how create real barriers to entry to competitors.
