Roost for Student Housing

Student properties face a unique set of challenges. Roost’s security deposit refund automation solution is designed to support high seasonal volume (Turn), multiple beds, parent guarantors, international students — and can be configured for university-specific requirements.

Cut security deposit management costs by up to 80%

Meet deposit compliance requirements in any location

Get full resident support and financial amenities at no cost to you

Save your team thousands of hours during peak season

Manage Turn with ease thanks to automated security deposit management, all generated straight from your property management system — Entrata, Yardi or Realpage.  The Roost platform helps reduce staff stress and overtime hours, while giving students the ability to choose how they want their refund — via direct deposit, instantly via debit card, pre-paid card or mailed check (varies by jurisdiction).

Simplify the entire security deposit refund process

Modern refund experience

Roost syncs with your property management system for split deposits by bed/unit and even guarantor. Students choose direct deposit, Instant card, or check for refunds. Roost manages consent, legal requirements, posts payments automatically, and keeps your team informed.

Automated efficiency

Beyond security deposit refunds, Roost automates essential processes like application refunds, interest accrual, bed and lease transfers, saving your team time and streamlining operations for greater efficiency.

Resident financial amenities built-in

From guides and savings to interest rewards to credit-building for paying rent on-time, a full suite of financial amenities are available to students at no cost to you.
