Asset Campus Housing is pleased to announce management of The District on Kernan.

This community offers their residents a wide variety of amenities in order to simplify the everyday life of a student. Amenities include: shuttle services to and from the Universities, a 24-hour fitness center, 2 resort style pools, basketball, volleyball and tennis courts.

With rising numbers in U.S. universities and colleges’ enrollment nationwide, schools are choosing to partner with third party student housing developers and management companies in order to provide students a wide variety of alternative housing options, frequently referred to as “University Affiliated Housing.”

Affiliated Housing Agreements direct prospective students to nearby off-campus affiliated properties as if it were part of its own inventory. The university may have a voice in certain aspects of the property’s operations, while the property owner will often adhere to the school’s residential policies and the university’s standard lease.

Motivating factors for both parties include: expedited development, reduction in risk, limited credit impact, and broadened planning goals. In many cases, the university is also able to implement their residence life program at the affiliated property, working closely with the owner as well as local staff.

Asset Campus Housing’s relationship with third party developers and school officials on University Affiliated Housing properties has grown significantly in 2012. This trend is seen within the current management portfolio, with ACH now overseeing more than 5,000 University Affiliated Housing beds nationwide.

“With the current University Affiliated Housing properties ACH manages, we have seen tremendous teamwork and positive feedback from school officials on operations, residence life and marketing standpoints,” says Stuart Davis, VP of Operations.

With several senior level employees coming from an on-campus housing background, ACH fully understands and compliments the university and developer relationship.


Asset Campus Housing is pleased to welcome Campus Walk I & Campus Walk II to their nationwide student housing management portfolio.

The two properties are located in Wilmington, North Carolina only two blocks away from the University of North Carolina at Wilmington. Together, the properties provide housing for over 557 students in the area.

Bridge Partners, a real estate investment and development company based out of California, recently acquired Indigo Place, a 588 bed student housing community located near the University of Illinois. Upon acquisition of Indigo Place, Bridge Partners placed Asset Campus Housing as the onsite management and operational team.  ACH quickly began implementing a comprehensive renovation, marketing and rebranding campaign to reposition this asset as a leader in the local Champaign/Urbana student housing market.

Indigo Place offers a variety of 2-, 3- and 4- bedroom floor plans with individual leases and brand new furniture in the living room, dining room and bedroom. The community will include a luxury of amenities such as; a state of the art fitness center, computer center, game room with billiards and Ping-Pong tables, a competitive sized basketball and sand volleyball court, and an oversized hot tub set beside the resort style swimming pool.

This particular acquisition is in line with Bridge Partners’ strategy to build out their student housing portfolio and pursue value add and distressed deals throughout the country. They plan to invest approximately $900,000 in capital to reposition the property by rebranding the name to “One 17 Place”, enhancing the exterior appearance, and updating the clubhouse, swimming pool, fitness center and game room.
