About the Student Housing Simulator
Model beds, rent, and occupancy against expenses to see NOI and value at your cap rate.
It's built for directional planning: change any assumption and watch the whole projection move, the way a seasoned operator pressure-tests a plan before committing capital. Everything is computed live in your browser — nothing is sent anywhere.
How the Student Housing Simulator Works
The model takes 5 assumptions and returns 3 headline metrics plus a full breakdown. Here is exactly what goes in and what comes out — no black box.
The Inputs
| Assumption | Example value |
|---|---|
| Beds | 300 |
| Rent / bed / mo | $800 |
| Occupancy | 95% |
| Expense ratio | 40% |
| Cap rate | 5.5% |

The Operator's Read
Per-bed leasing and parental guarantees make student housing rents resilient, and demand tracks enrollment near strong universities. The risk is summer vacancy and turnover cost every August. Educational only.
Assumptions & Limitations
- •The model is deterministic: it projects your inputs forward with clear arithmetic, not a Monte-Carlo or probabilistic forecast. It shows one scenario at a time — run several to bracket a range.
- •Defaults are illustrative benchmarks, not your business. Replace every field with your real numbers before drawing conclusions.
- •It abstracts away taxes, financing, seasonality, and one-off events unless a field explicitly captures them. Treat the output as a directional estimate.
- •This is an educational tool, not financial, investment, tax, or legal advice. Validate real decisions with a qualified professional.
