Student accommodation finance across the lifecycle
The structures we arrange to acquire, build, fund forward and refinance student accommodation, used alone or together.
We arrange finance across the full student accommodation lifecycle. Development finance funds a ground-up build, extension or conversion. Forward funding and forward commitment bring an institutional buyer in before completion. Bridging moves at site-acquisition pace. Stabilisation finance carries a completed scheme through lease-up to mature occupancy. An investment term loan or refinance lowers a rate, raises capital or exits a development facility. Mezzanine and equity fill the gap between senior debt and the sponsor's cash. Acquisition and investment finance funds the purchase of a standing asset. We model the right structure, run it across our lender panel, and place the facility that fits the scheme, the operator and the plan.
Student accommodation acquisition and investment finance
Senior investment debt to acquire a standing or operational purpose-built student accommodation scheme, or an asset let to an operator, sized on the income it produces and the yield it commands. We arrange and place the debt with the lenders that understand PBSA.

Learn moreStudent accommodation bridging finance
Short-term bridging finance when speed matters: a site acquisition, an auction purchase, a planning play, a pre-development buy or a chain-break, refinanced onto development or investment debt once the longer-term plan is in place.
Learn moreStudent accommodation stabilisation finance
The facility that carries a newly completed student accommodation scheme through lease-up, from practical completion to the occupancy and income a long-term investment lender wants, replacing development debt and reducing the cost while the scheme matures.
Learn moreStudent accommodation investment term loans and mortgages
Long-term investment debt on a stabilised, income-producing student accommodation scheme: the commercial mortgage or term loan that holds the asset, sized on the rental income it produces, the operator and the lease or nomination structure behind it.
