AUSTIN, TEXAS — Austin-based Threshold Agency, along with Asset Campus Housing, Collegiate Development Group and Kayne Anderson, has won the 2016 Best Marketing and Lease-Up Program award from Student Housing Business, a publication covering the student housing industry. The award highlights the company’s work with TODD Student Living, which helped the community become one of the fastest lease-ups in the Columbia, Mo., market. In 2014, Houston-based Asset Campus Housing, along with Collegiate Development Group and Kayne Anderson Real Estate Advisors, hired Threshold to create a brand for their new development. The Threshold team proposed the TODD name after coming across the term “transit-oriented development,” or TOD, in their initial research. The term refers to mixed-use communities within walking distance of a transit station or key points of interest. As a result of the team’s efforts, TODD Student Living leased up in just two months, with a waiting list before many other properties in the market had even reached 50 percent.
