📉 Student Housing Preleasing Slows Amid Government Bureaucracy Preleasing for student housing has hit a roadblock, with concerns pointing towards issues in federal financial aid processing. According to Yardi Matrix's June 2024 report, while preleasing for the Yardi 200 hit 80% in May, slightly better than in 2023, the overall process has slowed significantly. Federal financial aid, specifically the FAFSA, has faced major delays and glitches following a significant overhaul. This has left many families struggling to complete the necessary forms, resulting in fewer completed applications and delayed financial aid awards. Consequently, this has impacted students' ability to secure housing for the upcoming academic year. Despite these challenges, the average rent per bed has risen to $897, a 5.3% increase from last year. However, year-over-year and month-over-month preleasing growth rates have reached their lowest point this season. Explore the full analysis by Erik Sherman to understand the implications of these bureaucratic hurdles on student housing preleasing. #StudentHousing #HigherEducation #FAFSA #FinancialAid #RealEstate #MarketTrends
