Vibha Salgamay is a Managing Partner at Relik Capital Group, leading Capital Relationships & Growth—working with individuals and groups who want to grow their wealth through senior living real estate with a clear, steady approach.
Relik is built around a simple story: the Baby Boomer population is growing, and at the same time there aren’t enough quality senior living communities in many markets. Building new communities is hard and expensive, so supply hasn’t kept pace. That gap can create lasting demand for the right properties over time.
With a background in UX design, Vibha treats investing like designing a great experience: reduce confusion, communicate consistently, and make sure the plan works in the real world—not just on paper. Relik stays focused on risk, especially whether the operator can actually deliver the business plan, so investors aren’t counting on best-case scenarios.
