Friday Mar 27, 2020
What does the $2 trillion stimulus package mean for the Student Housing industry? Can developers expect delays? How are lenders responding to the crisis? These are some of the questions we discuss in the latest episode of the Student Housing Insight podcast.
I sit down with Dave Borsos and Matthew Berger from the National Multi Housing Council and discuss how they are advising government agencies and law makers about the potential impact of COVID-19 on the industry specifically in the United States. We also provide an important message on how you can make a positive impact with college students who are struggling more than others during this time.

Universities are extending their 2 week remote study status until the end of the semester and many are extending it through the summer. With students gone from campus and the leasing season in full swing, property managers are scrambling to figure out how to reach students and making sure the right message is communicated during these unprecedented circumstances.
In this special episode of the Student Housing Insight podcast, Wes & Gretta go through several guidelines of how properties should be pivoting their marketing expenses to better reach students where they are. We also sit down with Michael Newton, founder of Swarm, to discuss how to use Brand Ambassadors when students are back at their permanent addresses. Nay Cook, CEO at Resident Reach, also gives us some quick tips on how to make sure your property videos are engaging and sending the right message during this time.

How will Covid-19 impact student housing? This week we have seen universities cancel study-abroad programs, extend spring breaks, and implement remote study status. How might this effect occupancy come this fall? Could some universities actually experience strains on their housing supply?
In this special episode of the Student Housing Insight podcast, co-host Dr. Philip Badaszewski and myself sit down with down with Vincenzo Raimo, a Global Higher Education Specialist, to discuss possible impacts this pandemic may have on housing supply this upcoming summer and fall. This will likely be an on-going series of episodes as we help industry professionals try and navigate this escalating and very fluid situation.
