Want to build a home for your student or add rental units in a college town — without waiting 18–24 months? Off-site construction might be the fastest, smartest solution available today.
In this episode of College Real Estate Coach, host Vikki Grodner sits down with Stratton Tingle, Director of Market Development and Strategic Partnerships at Wind River Built, to unpack how modular homes, tiny homes, and ADUs are reshaping housing options in competitive college markets like Tuscaloosa, UAB/Birmingham, Auburn, and university towns across the country.
You’ll learn:
• Why off-site construction can cut build time in half
• The difference between tiny homes, ADUs, modular homes & HUD products
• How zoning impacts student housing and parent purchasing strategies
• Real examples of 104 student beds built in just 9 months
• How parents and investors can use modular builds to create long-term equity
• What makes small-footprint homes ideal for STRs, MTRs, game-day rentals & student occupants
• If you’re investing in a college town, this episode gives you a strategic edge.
