Government Supports £530m Manchester Student Accommodation Scheme

The government has praised an institutional investment in student accommodation in Manchester, according to Landlord Today. The £530 million redevelopment will be delivered through a 50-year partnership model.

The project involves The University of Manchester, investment firm Equitix, student building contractor GRAHAM, and pensions insurer Rothesay. The scheme is focused on student accommodation and represents a significant institutional investment in the sector.

This development may be of interest to UK letting agents and inventory clerks monitoring large-scale changes in the student rental market.
