Well not the buildings themselves but the companies that own them. PSU email accounts have rec'd 6 or 7 emails since January offering incentives for students to sign leases for their overpriced crappy apartments. I say crappy because some of the reviews are pretty bad. Then again most apartment places in State College have bad reviews. I think we are seeing now there is a surplus of housing in State College because these places are now offering signing bonuses, discounts, gift cards etc. I know in the past, students had to sign leases in August/September of current year(2022) in order to have a place for Aug 2023. Seems like students can take their time now and be more selective. Thought the new places may leave the older places empty, but sounds like new places are nothing but overpriced and problematic with management response time to repairs. Elevators not working, etc.
