Student Housing Websites

If you lease by the bedroom, the headline number on every floor plan should be the per-bed rent, with the whole-unit figure as secondary detail. A four-bedroom leasing at $600 per bed should never lead with $2,400, because the renter deciding owes $600. If you lease both ways, show both, labeled plainly.

Usually yes, when they share an owner. One site with a clearly separated section per property is cheaper to run and neither community loses its own name, floor plans, photos, or Google Business Profile, since local listings follow the leasing office address rather than the domain.

Before leasing opens. Properties at large university markets begin leasing in October and November, and the heaviest shopping runs from mid-October through February. Practically that means deciding in August and building in September, then freezing the site for the season except availability updates.

At 50 to 150 beds, usually not. Dedicated matching platforms are built for large purpose-built properties and university housing offices. A roommate-preference field on the tour request form, read by a human, does the job at small scale and costs nothing.

Yes, if your university runs or partners with one; many campuses have an official off-campus listing partner, and students trust those lists. It complements your own site rather than replacing it: the listing gets you found, and your website closes the lease with pricing, photos, and lease terms the listing cannot carry.

Yes. We connect student housing sites to RentMerchant, our own rent collection platform, and to Yardi, RealPage, AppFolio, Entrata, AMSI, Buildium and Rent Manager, so availability, applications, and payments keep flowing through the system you already run.
