​For years, purpose-built student housing (PBSH) at large public universities was treated as a niche category—an afterthought to conventional multifamily. But on Tier-1 campuses like ASU, Michigan, NC State, and SUNY Binghamton, the opposite has happened: enrollment has climbed, walkable land has tightened, and modern student expectations have diverged sharply from the aging off-campus stock.

​The result is one of the most compelling residential opportunities of the next decade: user-designed, professionally operated housing platforms serving a cohort that evaluates their homes not just by square footage, but by routines, community, wellness, and service.

​Join us for a 60-minute Buy Box Live Q&A with Aptitude Development, the team behind The Marshall—a growing national platform building and operating ground-up PBSH in Tier-1 markets. We’ll unpack the opportunity, walk through two of their current projects (ASU & Binghamton), and explore how integrated development + management platforms are reshaping student housing as it institutionalizes.

Aptitude has spent the last decade building track record while developing one of the most focused pipelines in the sector. By targeting campuses with high enrollment growth, persistent supply-demand imbalances in pedestrian locations, and parent-backed leasing structures, Tier-1 PBSH now delivers the yield, operating consistency, and exit liquidity that institutional investors increasingly demand.

​In this session, Paul & Brad of Thesis Driven will sit down with Jared Hutter (Co-Founder) and Zach Feldman (Partner) to break down the model, the pipeline, and the broader opportunity in user-driven residential platforms.
