 Purpose-built student
accommodation (PBSA)
investments are successful
with investors across the UK
and overseas.

The demand for student

housing has grown over the
past couple of decades as
student numbers increase.

 This has made PBSA one of the
best performing asset classes for
residual profits and long-term
returns.

 Modern students are expecting more
up-to-date and luxurious
accommodation compared to
students 10 or 20 years ago.

This is another reason why PBSA is

increasing in popularity amongst
students.

 The questions around Brexit leave many investors lost and
discourage new investors from choosing a student accommodation
investment.

However, recent research has shown that these fears are

misplaced as Brexit doesnt appear to have affected student
numbers.

 2015 - UCAS revealed student numbers in both England and
Scotland were up 3%.

The higher student numbers mean there is more demand for

accommodation, that universities cannot provide.

 2014 - Knight Frank produced a study showing how chronic under-
supply in PBSA meant that there was room for massive growth in
the sector.

2017 - 5.3bn is to be spent on PBSA compared to 4.5bn last

year.

The numbers have shown that the student housing
sector still remains vibrant and attractive to
investors.

 2016 - 1.9bn invested in PBSA before the referendum, compared
to 2.1bn in the six months after the vote.

Based on the data provided by UCAS, the student accommodation

market isnt slowing down regardless of Brexit.
