\"VERVE<\/a><\/p>\n

Subtext<\/a>, a national real estate company focused on elevating the resident experience, has officially opened VERVE Orlando<\/a>, a 626-bed student housing development near the University of Central Florida<\/a>. Located at 3133 N. Alafaya Trail, the 446,078-square-foot project includes 200 units ranging from studios to five-bedroom layouts.<\/p>\n

\u201cVERVE Orlando reflects our belief that student living should feel specific to the residents and the market it serves,\u201d said Tim VanMatre, Founding Partner and Co-CEO of Subtext. \u201cWe leaned into the energy of Orlando to create a community that balances academics and wellness with entertainment, connection, and fun. The result is an experience that feels distinctly VERVE, but also distinctly Orlando.\u201d<\/p>\n

Located less than a quarter mile from campus along Science Drive, VERVE Orlando places residents within an eight-minute walk of UCF while offering a highly activated, hospitality-driven living experience. The development is programmed around Orlando\u2019s year-round climate and entertainment culture, extending student life beyond the apartment with indoor and outdoor environments that encourage residents to spend time outside, connect with friends, create, focus, and recharge. Across more than 37,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor space, these amenities come together into a community that supports every aspect of student life.<\/p>\n

\u00b7 Fitness & Wellness: 24\/7 fitness center; dedicated yoga room; wellness suite with sauna and meditation rooms<\/p>\n

\u00b7 Entertainment & Social: Courtyard pool with sun shelf and hot tub; outdoor green space with fire pits and grilling stations; karaoke lounge; golf simulator; speakeasy with arcade games; club room with indoor games<\/p>\n

\u00b7 Study & Work: Study lounge with private and group study pods; outdoor study breezeway; podcast and content creation room<\/p>\n

\u00b7 Everyday Convenience: Lobby coffee bar; pet spa; EV charging stations; bike and scooter storage with charging and repair stations<\/p>\n

As part of the development, Subtext improved the Innovation Trail North by widening the sidewalk to 10 feet along the western edge of the property, enhancing pedestrian access, and connectivity between the community and campus.<\/p>\n

VERVE Orlando represents Subtext\u2019s first student housing development to deliver in Florida and expands the company\u2019s presence into one of the nation\u2019s largest university markets. UCF enrolled over 70,000 students in Fall 2025, making it the largest university by enrollment in Florida and one of the largest in the nation. The university\u2019s main campus is also adjacent to Central Florida Research Park, connecting UCF to the region\u2019s established research and technology ecosystem.<\/p>\n

The community was developed in partnership with FrontRange Capital Partners and Nuveen Real Estate. Financing was provided by Simmons Bank. Architecture was led by Dwell Design Studio, interiors were led by ESG Architecture & Design, civil engineering was completed by Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc., and construction was completed by Live Oak Contracting. Construction began in summer 2024, and the first residents moved into the community in August 2026.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe VERVE Orlando project aligns well with our student housing development strategy, which is focused on delivering new, Class A, fully amenitized student rental housing in large and growing university markets across the country, including Orlando,\u201d said Carlos Burneo, Nuveen\u2019s lead for housing development in the U.S. \u201cThis is an exciting start to our development relationship with Subtext.\u201d<\/p>\n

VERVE Orlando continues the growth of Subtext\u2019s student housing platform, which delivered five new developments totaling 3,105 beds ahead of the 2026\u201327 academic year.<\/p>\n
