College House Expands Market Intelligence for Student Housing with Green Street Integration



In a groundbreaking move for the U.S. student housing market, College House has unveiled a significant expansion of its analytics platform, powered by Green Street. This new development allows investors and operators to access vital market-level data and analysis specifically tailored for the student housing sector. The integration signifies a pivotal enhancement, following Green Street's acquisition of College House in 2025, which was initially aimed at elevating the analytics of student housing.

The latest platform features an array of tools designed to provide comprehensive insights. Among these are key metrics such as capitalization rates, asset value indices, and risk-adjusted return estimates, alongside fundamental data covering rental rates, occupancy levels, supply trends, and M-RevPAF growth. Additionally, the introduction of the proprietary University Grades framework allows for long-term rent growth potential assessments across nearly 180 universities nationwide.

"Our clients have always relied on us for the depth of our student housing data," said Charlie Matthews, General Manager of College House. "Now, they will receive that depth combined with institutional-grade investment analytics directly within the platform, making it more seamless than ever."

This latest enhancement represents the most significant integration since the acquisition and demonstrates College House’s commitment to delivering industry-leading analytics. The merger of Green Street's rigorous analysis framework with College House's extensive market data opens new avenues for stakeholders in student housing. For instance, clients now have access to a comprehensive dataset tracking over 3,500 purpose-built properties across more than 280 markets and 1.5 million beds, making it the industry's most robust dataset of its kind.

What’s New?


New capabilities introduced in this platform upgrade include:
  • - Valuation Data: Benchmarks for student housing that encompass a full risk-adjusted IRR buildup, providing analysis for current and historical cap rates and a Commercial Property Price Index (CPPI). This index helps in real-time tracking of asset values based on current yields and forward NOI growth projections.
  • - Fundamentals Data: Offering estimates of market rates and occupancy, alongside new supply, NOI growth, and M-RevPAF growth data. This enhancement allows users to benchmark student housing markets against broader regions and the entire sector, supplemented by predictive analytics on performance.
  • - University Grades: A unique scoring system based on seven independent variables, effectively highlighting long-term rent growth estimates for proximity to nearly 180 institutions. Each institution is paired with a detailed analysis of key market-level factors affecting demand and supply.

Green Street's Chief Analytics Officer, Andrew McCulloch, noted, "This integration reflects our vision at the time of acquiring College House. By fusing Green Street's independent research and proprietary valuation frameworks with College House’s comprehensive data, we are enabling student housing investors to allocate capital more efficiently."

The collaborative efforts have also birthed the inaugural Student Housing Outlook report by Green Street, providing an in-depth examination of valuation trends, supply dynamics, and investment potential in key university markets. This report is now available to enhance the insights offered by College House's analytics.

Conclusion


As the sector continues to evolve, College House and Green Street are poised to lead the charge in transforming how stakeholders engage with student housing data. The new capabilities are available to current Enhanced Reporting and Database Explorer subscribers, while standard-tier users can get a preview before deciding on an upgrade. This strategic integration not only enriches the analytical capabilities of College House's platform but also positions its clients to make informed investment decisions in a crucial segment of the real estate market.
