THE STUDENT:
Privacy: When students hunt for an apartment, one of their top priorities is having their own space. This means a private bathroom, a personal room to relax in, and a separate area to host friends. College life can be hectic, with constant interactions and activities. After a long day of classes, work, and events, nothing is more important than coming home to a personal sanctuary. A place where you can close the door, lock it, and enjoy your own space. No need to trek to a communal bathroom to wash your face—you have the convenience of your own private bathroom just steps away. This personal space extends to your own room, where you can keep things clean and organized, ensuring it’s always a comfortable retreat from the chaos.
Convenience: In student living, convenience is everything. It means living close to campus so you can walk to class, saving on gas money, or having a dedicated bus from your apartment complex to campus every day. It’s about having everything you need at your fingertips—a cozy spot to hang out with friends, study rooms for those intense study sessions, and amenities like a gym to keep your life balanced. These conveniences make it easier for students to juggle their academic, social, and personal lives, ensuring a smoother, more enjoyable college experience.
Top-Notch Wi-Fi and Internet Connections: Reliable and fast internet access is a non-negotiable for today’s students. Imagine the panic of trying to submit a paper at 11:55 PM, only for the Wi-Fi to crash with only 4 minutes to spare. Or the frustration of logging into a mandatory Zoom class and being marked half an absence because the Zoom connection was buffering. Reliable internet isn’t just about schoolwork; it also impacts your downtime. After a long day, the last thing you want is for your Wi-Fi to go out in the middle of a show or while you’re scrolling through TikTok to decompress before diving into homework, work, or going to plans for the night.
THE PARENT:
When it comes to being a parent, safety is always at the forefront of their minds, especially when their child leaves for college. When parents are assisting in finding places for their students to live, the primary concern is often about safety. Questions arise: Is it a gated community? Are there security guards at night? What systems are in place to enhance my child’s safety, and what protocols ensure that only residents and approved visitors have access to the building?
The latest trend in student living focuses on safety, with key fobs playing a crucial role. These key fobs allow only residents access into the building, their designated apartment, and even their specific room. Functioning as transmitters, these key fobs communicate with locks, granting access only if it’s assigned to a certain lock. Research shows that
“KEY FOBS PROVIDE A HIGHER LEVEL OF SECURITY COMPARED TO PHYSICAL KEYS, AS THEIR LOCKS CANNOT BE PICKED. ADDITIONALLY, IF A
KEY FOB IS MISPLACED OR LOST, IT CAN EASILY BE DEACTIVATED, PREVENTING UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO THE APARTMENT.”
This system adds an extra layer of security and peace of mind for both parents and students alike.
