Property Week and Student Roost brought together a panel of industry experts to discuss the challenges facing the purpose-built student accommodation sector and the opportunities that have opened up this year.
Partner at Summix Capital, Niamh O’Connor: "We remain upbeat about the sector. Transaction volume is still there; it might be slightly lower than where it has been, but long-term institutional investors still see a lot of resilience in the market. We are not seeing any transactional distress; banks are not pulling the carpet from under people. Part of the reason we are still active is we see the recovery period coinciding with construction periods. If you have a two-year construction period, we think the market will have actively recovered from Covid and there will be pent-up demand that will need to be fulfilled for the academic year in 2022-23, for example."

Stuart Black, development director at Summix Capital, commented: “We are delighted to have completed the sales of these two fantastic sites during such difficult times, which is testament to the quality of the projects and the parties involved, and are excited to see them progress through to the next stage of their development.”
