Firmly established at the forefront of the industry, the Watkin Jones Group is one of the most experienced and extensive developers of Student Accommodation schemes in the UK.
Since 1999, we have created well over 10,000 student units in prime locations at key university sites nationwide. Along with our careful choice of locations, the cornerstones of our success have been a combination of creativity and functionality – backed by a dedicated and comprehensive service, from project planning and finance, through site preparation and construction, to long term property management.
The growing nationwide demand for Student Accommodation represents an excellent opportunity for investment – both private and corporate. The Watkin Jones Student Accommodation Division has a track record of selecting prime locations at key university sites, all with attractive budgeted net yields – making our developments an even better choice for buy to let or managed investment.
