“College Pads is a super influential part of our ability to lease up. Ninety-something percent of our leads come from the platform, and the quality of those leads is significantly better. Having our properties featured on the university’s off-campus housing site definitely brings visibility and credibility with students and parents.”

“We’ve had a pretty steady experience with College Pads, and we understand the benefit we’re getting from it, even if it’s not always direct. There’s real value in the brand awareness and in being featured on a university housing page. In markets where the university is highly involved, it’s been a fantastic partnership for us.”

"What a great concept!  No advertising we've tried has worked this well. It's quickly becoming the only advertising we need. RCP's system makes it easy for students to find us, preview our houses and duplexes, and puts us in touch with qualified prospective student tenants."
