TEND™ Core
Now enrolling · Florida first
Licensing. Tended.
Licensing is the core of senior living: no home opens, changes hands or runs without it. TEND Core handles licensing, change of ownership and opening day for small assisted living homes, in one place.
Step 1 of 6

Where are you right now?

TEND Core runs setup, operations and compliance for small and independent assisted living homes. Pick the situation that fits — your roadmap and tiers change with it.

Step 2 of 6

Which state, how many beds?

TEND has researched all 50 states and DC. Bed size sets which rules apply and how the services price.

Step 3 of 6 · Free roadmap

Your roadmap, free.

Every step tagged State, County, or TEND. Government fees are shown separately — never baked into TEND's price.

The roadmap comes from TEND's state-by-state research. It's a starting point, not legal advice.

Step 4 of 6 · Fixed price

Three tiers. Fixed fees.

No commissions, no success fees, no percentage of a sale or loan. Billed by milestone.

Software subscriptions (eMAR, EHR, scheduling) are billed by the vendor directly, not TEND. TEND Core does not broker buyers or sellers.

Step 5 of 6 · Start

Reserve your spot.

We are opening TEND Core to a small first group of clients. Tell us how to reach you and we will send your engagement letter. Nothing is charged today.

Government fees shown separately. State licensing, fire marshal review, local health permit, county zoning letter: your line items, paid directly to the agency. TEND does not mark these up.

Your engagement letter: fixed fee, billed by milestone, one client per engagement, TEND holds no money, written weekly updates. No resident data is stored in the portal.

Step 6 of 6 · You’re on the list

Spot reserved.

We received your details and will send your engagement letter. Below is a preview of your client dashboard: once you start, every step shows here as it moves forward, with an email each time something changes. Business documents only. No resident data lives here.

Larger builds — let's talk.

TEND's fixed-price tiers cover 5–60 beds. For 60+ bed homes the stack still applies, but every engagement is scoped around the project. Share a few details and TEND will get back to you.

What a 60+ bed engagement looks like. Scope and fixed fee defined upfront. Same rules — no commissions, no success fees, TEND holds no money. Usually begins with a 1A-1 Operator's Assessment to confirm fit before a full engagement letter.
