WHY INVEST IN LONDON STUDENT HOUSING
The UK student housing market is under immense pressure, with a gap of more than 580,000 beds identified by CBRE. This shortage is driving intense demand for high-quality, purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA).
While the shortage is predominantly located in the North of England, there are gaps within the London market that need to be filled exclusively by fully managed student accommodation.
In a record-breaking year for the sector, investment in PBSA hit £3.9 billion, while national occupancy soared to 98% a clear indicator of sustained student demand. Yet, with only 16,000 new rooms added to the market, supply continues to lag significantly behind.
