See vacancies coming, instead of discovering them.
Owners should know which rooms open up next month before the month arrives. Forecasting turns lease-end dates and renewal behaviour into a forward view of occupancy.
From lease dates to a forward view.
Lease-end dates
Every active lease has an end date. The nearest ones set the baseline for which rooms are due to turn over.
Renewal patterns
How students in similar rooms and terms have renewed before adjusts the odds that a given lease continues.
A forward view
The result is a month-by-month picture of likely vacancies per room, rather than a count taken after the fact.
Next month, one floor.
A forecast is only useful at the room level. Here is how one floor reads a month ahead.
What the owner sees for next month
With a month of lead time, those two confirmed-vacant rooms can be put in front of matching students before they sit empty, rather than after the tenant has already left.
Three rooms forecast to open next month; two already reserved by renewing students.
An honest note on accuracy
A forecast is a probability, not a promise. Accuracy improves as more lease history and renewal outcomes accumulate for a property - the longer a PG runs on YOUNISTAY, the sharper its forward view becomes. Early on, treat it as a well-informed estimate rather than a guarantee.
What sharpens it: complete lease-end dates, recorded renewal decisions, and consistent move-in and move-out logging. The more of a property's real history lives in one place, the better the next forecast.
