An Opportunity
In our first year, our out-of-town students
shared one of these suites. We had
favorable treatment from the Mainsail management, who are believers, and were
allowed a favorable rate with a lease running exactly from the date desired to
the date desired by us.
As good as this arrangement is, the students
are NOT able to pay our published rates for the dorms – we would be very
comfortable if they could, but the $550/month per student is just not feasible.
We must look forward to paying Mainsail $1,235
per month for each suite. If we have
four guys, and four girls, we can charge each of them $315, and break
even. If we have three guys, or three
girls, we can charge $415, and get by.
But we may have fewer than a multiple of four or three, and we cannot
expect the students to come with great stores of money for housing, as well as
for tuition.
We think some of you might have the means and
the desire to SPONSOR a portion of these dorm rooms, so that when we charge our
students a “Fair” portion of the rent, we have the funds to make up the
difference.
Thank you for considering this opportunity.
