Student Accommodation “The Low Cost Cash Purchase.”

Student Accommodation “The Low Cost Cash Purchase.”

Making an investment in UK property can be extremely profitable.  One of the most lucrative investments is student accommodation.

In the academic year of 2019/2020, there were 2.46 million students studying at UK higher education institutions, according to the House of Commons Library.

There is a huge demand for student accommodation across the whole of the UK.  Because of this, towns and cities outside of traditionally high capital growth areas such as London and the South East are a great option for investment, and the properties are far less expensive.

However, with so many options available, it can be hard to know where to start looking in order to take advantage of the returns to be had from student accommodation.

Get To Know The Area

As with any property investment, it’s vital that you understand your market. It’s especially important to get to know the area you want to invest in.

Increasingly, many universities are working with local authorities and developers to build brand new purpose-built student accommodation.

The preferences of tenants can change frequently, as newer and more convenient accommodation becomes available.  It’s therefore important to keep tabs on student preferences in the area, and any new accommodation that’s coming to market in the future.

Take A Look At Our Student Accommodation

Many university students prefer to live in areas that are dominated by student housing, so they can be within easy walking distance of their friends.

It’s more important to be close to campus in some towns and cities than others, so take public transport into account.

Lujo Investments have many purpose-built student properties available for investment.  Take a look at just some of our current offerings.
