"We have hired B&D multiple times throughout the years.  Several years ago, we were experiencing challenges with our on-campus student housing occupancy rates. B&D came in and assisted us in addressing the situation, making recommendations regarding the need for expanded and consistent marketing.  They provided suggestions for physical improvements to our facilities and consolidated management.  The team also made suggestions for enhanced programming which included the establishment of theme communities and also presented a model for a housing continuum.   Their final report was well received by our management staff and senior administration, which allowed us to make the needed changes.  A year later, our housing is full and we have a wait-list."
