Run your student housing with tools built around your leasing cycle
Build the exact tools your student housing operation needs. Create a listings website with real-time availability, an application and roommate matching portal, a tour scheduler, a maintenance request system, and a turnover dashboard — just by describing your workflow.
Start with the basics
Build the tools your student housing actually needs
Student housing operates on tight academic timelines, with intense pre-leasing, high inquiry volume and bed-level availability that changes daily. Spreadsheets and generic systems make it hard to keep listings accurate, track applications, coordinate tours and manage waitlists across multiple properties.
With YeshBe, you can build custom apps that match your leasing and operations process. Create a public site for rooms and rates, an application portal with status tracking, a roommate preferences form, and an internal availability dashboard that reflects your exact bed-space structure. Add a resident maintenance portal, staff work-order views and a turnover planner for inspections, cleaning and move-ins — all aligned to your calendar.
Because you design the workflow, you can adapt tools to your policies, terminology and team structure, without bending your process to a one-size-fits-all system.
- Leasing and availabilityPublish listings, manage bedspace availability and rates, and keep everything aligned with your pre-leasing plan.
- Applications and roommate matchingBuild an application portal with status tracking and a roommate preferences form to help staff suggest compatible matches.
- Maintenance and work ordersGive residents an easy way to submit issues with photos and priority, and route tasks to your maintenance team.
- Turnover and move-in planningPlan inspections, cleaning and key handoffs with a clear dashboard for summer or mid-year turns.

Listings and availability website
Show real-time rooms and rates with filters, floor plans and clear calls to apply or book a tour.
PromptBuild a student housing website with public pages: Home, Properties, Search. Add filters for price range, room type (single, double, ensuite), lease term (9, 10, 12 months), distance to campus and available-from date. Show property/building pages and unit/room detail pages with photos, amenities, floor plan, rates and an 'Apply' and 'Schedule a tour' button. Data model: properties, buildings, units/rooms/bedspaces with status (available, reserved, occupied), rates per term, amenities and photos. Include an admin area to update availability, rates and featured listings.
Application and roommate matching portal
Collect applications, track statuses and use a preferences survey to suggest compatible roommates.
PromptBuild an application portal for student housing. Applicants create an account and submit details: name, email, phone, school, year of study, desired move-in date, budget, preferred room type and notes. Include a roommate preferences survey (sleep schedule, cleanliness, study habits, noise level, social preferences). Compute a simple compatibility score based on matching answers. Staff dashboard: pipeline stages (New, Under review, Offered, Accepted, Waitlisted, Declined), filters by building/room type/budget, notes, and the ability to assign a unit/bedspace. Show suggested roommate matches for each applicant based on the survey and allow staff to mark matches as shortlisted or not suitable.
Maintenance request and work order system
Let residents submit issues and give your team a clear workflow to triage and resolve them.
PromptBuild a maintenance portal for student housing. Resident-facing form: building, unit, category (plumbing, electrical, appliance, other), description, photos/attachments, urgency, permission to enter and preferred time windows. Create a staff dashboard with filters by building, category, priority and status (New, Assigned, In progress, On hold, Completed). Auto-assign requests by building and category if rules are set. Provide a mobile-friendly technician view to update status, add notes and completion photos. Show residents the live status of their requests in their portal.
Turnover and move-in/out planner
Coordinate inspections, cleaning and room readiness during peak turn periods.
PromptBuild a turnover planner for student housing. Create a calendar and list view of units/bedspaces with move-out and move-in dates. For each unit, generate tasks: pre-move-out inspection, cleaning, painting, maintenance fixes, final inspection and key preparation. Allow assigning tasks to staff or vendors, add due dates and checklists, and upload photos. Include a dashboard showing readiness status by building and a bulk scheduling tool to assign tasks for a whole floor or building. Track key status and move-in packet completion.
