Pierce gives a positive and truthful take on student-housing trends.
SAN DIEGO—From the high level of amenities being offered to the astoundingly high occupancy rate of student-housing communities, this sector has truly reinvented itself. As we recently reported, Pierce Education Properties' president and CEO Fred Pierce told us there are several misconceptions about student housing, from student debt to destruction of property. Now, in a series of short video interviews, Pierce reveals to us exclusively several trends in student housing that show just how much this sector has changed.
In addition to discussing the student-housing misconceptions, Pierce covers a wealth of topics, including:
- the ratio of undergrads to graduate students in residential communities
- on-campus vs. independent communities
- high-end housing amenities
- occupancy rates
- where student-housing rents are going
- financing trends
