College House Launches Green Street-Powered Market Intelligence, Bringing Institutional-Grade Analysis to Student Housing

A full suite of market-level fundamentals and valuation data, plus proprietary university grades and commentary, mark the most significant product integration since Green Street's 2025 acquisition of College House

NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., Aug. 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- College House, the specialized data and analytics platform for the U.S. student housing sector, today launched a major platform expansion giving investors and operators direct access to Green Street estimates of fundamentals and valuation calibrated for student housing markets. Key metrics include cap rates, asset value indices, risk-adjusted return estimates, and fundamentals such as rates, occupancy, supply, and M-RevPAF growth. The release also introduces University Grades, a proprietary scoring framework which indicates long-term rent growth potential for nearly 180 schools nationwide.

The launch marks the most significant product integration to come out of Green Street's 2025 acquisition of College House, building on College House Sales Comps' launch in December 2025. Together, the two releases signal rapid integration. Within a year of the deal closing, College House clients have gained direct access to the same research discipline Green Street applies across the rest of commercial real estate — now purpose-built for student housing.

College House tracks more than 3,500 purpose-built properties across 280-plus collegiate markets and 1.5 million-plus beds — the most comprehensive dataset of its kind in the industry.

New capabilities include:

• Valuation Data — Underwriting benchmarks calibrated for student housing markets, including a full risk-adjusted IRR build-up (cap rate, cap-ex, intermediate and long-term NOI growth, and risk adjustments), current and historical cap rates, and a Commercial Property Price Index (CPPI) which combines current yields and forward NOI growth projections to track asset values in real time.
  
  
• Fundamentals Data — Estimates of market rates, occupancy, new supply, NOI growth, and M-RevPAF growth layered onto the already-rich market intelligence College House clients are accustomed to. Clients can benchmark markets against broader regions and the student housing industry as a whole, and also leverage forward-looking analyst estimates of fundamental performance.
  
  
• University Grades & Analyst Commentary — A proprietary grade, composed of seven independent variables, that represents long-term rent growth potential for nearly 180 institutions, each paired with a summary of key market-level demand and supply factors.

"Our clients have always trusted us for the depth of our student housing data," said Charlie Matthews, General Manager of College House. "Now, they get that same depth paired with institutional-grade investment analytics, without leaving the platform."

"This is exactly the integration we envisioned when we acquired College House," said Andrew McCulloch, Chief Analytics Officer of Green Street. "Combining Green Street's independent research and proprietary valuation framework with College House's best-in-class data assets, will provide student housing investors a complete toolkit to allocate capital more effectively."

Green Street's inaugural Student Housing Outlook report was recently published, offering a closer look at the market intelligence now powering College House, with a deep dive into valuation trends, supply dynamics, and investment opportunities across key university markets.
