Student Housing

Purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) — in-suite and shared-amenity millwork built for student use.

Purpose-built student accommodation and university residence projects.

About this sub-sector

Student housing is high-turnover, high-use, low-maintenance. Every fixture has to survive 8-month leases and holiday turnovers.
