Yardi’s student housing report for April 2025 suggests a market that is weaker than last year, with preleasing slowing and tepid rent growth, even though the pace of fall enrollment has been rapid.
“Enrollment has been boosted by strong demographics but is threatened by political factors likely to cause declines in foreign student enrollment and graduate enrollment during the current presidential term,” Yardi stated.
Preleasing for the Yardi 200 schools reached 67.1% in March, a figure Yardi said is likely to be lower when data revisions are completed. As it stands, it is below the 67.7% estimate projected a year ago, signifying an overall slowdown in preleasing activity, Yardi said.
