Why You Should Attend This Event
Why This Matters:
The Research Triangle has long been known for it's institutions of higher learning, which have seen a record number of both applications, and enrollment figures. These factors have naturally driven a tremendous amount of activity within the Student Housing segment of the commercial real estate ecosystem. A recent Berkadia report listed NC State as the university with the 10th largest active construction pipeline of new units in 2024, alone. With well over 90% occupancy of these communities: rents continue to rise, as do new projects. However, the same report did not mention any universities in their top 50 schools with the highest supply-demand imbalance.
With major projects on the horizon, and tuition costs continuing to rise, this event will detail the level of risk in overbuilding within the region. As students turnover year-over-year, it will also discuss best practices in pre-leasing, retention of students not yet set to graduate, and managing effectively to maximize returns. It will also detail campus development initiatives among major institutions, and how facilities and campus environments can aid in attracting the highest caliber applicants. Join Bisnow, and our assembled panelists, as we detail the most pressing opportunities and roadblocks for continued investment performance represented in the sector, as we aim to position you in search of your next deal.
What You'll Learn:
- How are institutions prioritizing the facilities to upgrade as enrollment grows?
- How are campuses and facilities being designed to facilitate high performance?
- What real estate decisions are being made to attract the highest caliber applicants?
- What enrollment, application, and other metrics are investors finding confidence in for these types of assets in the region?

- How can property owners and managers successfully plan around resident turnover annually?
- What best practices are being implemented to ensure optimal pre-leasing activity?
