SUBJECT: New Student Living Arrangements Proposal
Here is the report that you requested showing the views of off-campus living.
This report shows that student’s need new housing in the area. By a series of surveys listing the most important attributes of off-campus housing, how important criteria such as price, location, shopping, public transportation, space and layout, furnishings, social activities, parking and pets affects a student’s decision on housing.
The report shows the analyzed information, which includes the arrangements students are most likely rent given their present economic situation. The questionnaire was given to sample students that included living options given by an architect. The following plans featured several choices such as private hotel-like rooms with a sleeping and sitting area, private bath but no kitchen; private one-room efficiency apartments; one-bedroom two person apartments; and four bedroom four-person apartments (Ober 2006, p. 463)
I have enjoyed working on this assignment, Darlene, and learned quite a bit from my analysis, which proves the necessity of an off-campus alternative for students. Please let me know if you have any questions about the report.

Executive Summary
Anderson and Associates are exploring the practicability of building off-campus student-apartment complex on a lot owned by the firm that is positioned two blocks from a college campus. Even though, the city planning commission believes there is enough housing for students, specific information from surveys show problems of the present housing for students and a need for change through a new building.
