Dorms and student rentals — operating within the Property Management operational architecture, with capabilities, data fields, and workflows configured for how a student housing actually manages its day-to-day operations.
A student housing operation combines the volume of residential property management with the seasonality of education — annual turnovers where every unit vacates and refills within weeks, inspection intensity at move-out, and a tenant cohort that expects modern, responsive service through their phone.
Every August (or the local equivalent) the entire portfolio turns over: inspections, deposits, cleaning, re-letting and onboarding all converge in a 3-week window. Bed-by-bed allocation for shared units adds complexity. Guarantor management, deposit handling and parental communication add layers that standard residential management doesn't face. When turnover is tracked in spreadsheets, units sit vacant for days that should have had back-to-back tenancies.
Starts from the Property Management core — shared capabilities, terminology and workflows — then configures precisely for student housing: specific data fields, approval steps and operational reports. You define your actual workflows and the system structures itself around your student housing operation, evolving as the business grows.
These are the capabilities configured for this template. Start with them, then adjust to your process — nothing invented, only what a student housing actually uses.
