At Karis Capital, we’re proud to have structured and delivered a £40.1 million restructuring facility to support the transformation of a residential block in South London into a premium purpose-built student accommodation...

As with any asset class in the property sphere, there are a multitude of options when it comes to funding. Private investment in the purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) sector has risen exponentially over the past five years, with total investment in the space reaching over £3.Sbn in 2024 (according to data from Savills) - a 13% increase from 2023.

For most accountancy firm owners, the focus day-to-day is simple: serving clients, building trust, and keeping the team engaged. Growth often comes steadily, one client at a time. But when it comes to stepping back, planning an exit, or thinking strategically about succession, the conversation changes dramatically.
