We are looking for a partner developer to joint venture with on a London student investment. We anticipate a 12 month turnaround once planning permission has been granted with an ROI of over 140%. The exit route is for individual units to be sold as student pods.
1. Investing in the Student Sector
Ref: HOLSM/12 - Holloway, London, N7
BRIEF AT A GLANCE
Out of the current developments we have come across, this is the
one that we are most excited about - purely due to the excellent
location and the asking price. Furthermore, he building has a
beautiful facade and grand porticos that add to the appeal of the
investment. The building is situated close to the universities and
the nearest underground station is Holloway Road (Piccadilly line),
approximately four minutes walk from the property and a couple of
minutes away from a number of campuses.
Asking Price: £2,600,000
Target Acquisition: £2,100,000
Conversion costs: £1,260,000
Total Sales: £5,622,750
Project Profit projection: £2,262,750
Tenure: Freehold
DESCRIPTION FLOOR SPACE
Available on a freehold basis, the entire site was converted to offices
over 20 years ago. The accommodation is arranged over ground
and three upper floors as indicated to the right. As for sales, we are
very confident in this development selling off to our client base who
have expressed significant interest in the London student pods. We
foresee two difficulties: Firstly, planning permission in this part of
London is difficult due to the high land costs and stringent planning
policies. Secondly, we do not anticipate being the only party
interested in student accommodation and we expect competition.
