your Accommodation Strategy will be tailored to your university

Over the last two years we have worked with 20+ universities on their accommodation strategies. Each one has been very different, but all of them have had to tackle some common themes to varying degrees. This experience means we can identify the right analysis and best options for your university.

Our Approach

In-Depth Analysis

We conduct a thorough analysis of your current accommodation provision, student demographics, and market trends to identify opportunities and challenges.

Implementation

We support you in implementing your strategy, from procurement and development through to marketing and management.

Strategic Planning

We work with you to develop a comprehensive accommodation strategy that aligns with your university’s vision, growth scenarios, and student expectations.

Ongoing Review

We monitor the performance of your accommodation portfolio and provide ongoing advice and support to ensure its continued success.

Key Considerations

Affordability: We understand the importance of providing affordable housing options for students, and can help advise on ways to balance this with overall project viability.
Location: We help you identify strategic locations that offer convenient access to campus and amenities.
Quality: We ensure that your accommodation meets high standards of quality, safety, and sustainability, and provide comparison to your peer group and private competition.
Student Experience: We prioritise creating a positive and supportive living environment that fosters student well-being and success.
