“I’m very happy with my 3rd property from Global Phoenix. I have been investing with them since 2020 and I couldn’t be happier with the hands off/hassle free investment they offer. I see the rental guarantee payments coming into my account without any issues. I have bought many properties in the UK and they are definitely my favourite developer to work with.”

Why Student Accommodation Investment is Thriving in the UK in 2025
When it comes to UK property investment, more and more private investors are turning to student accomodation, also known as PBSAs, in 2025 than ever before.
Student accommodation offers potentially higher, and more reliable long-term returns than traditional property, with a key university cities like Manchester having a consistently high demand for student housing. Also, all of our PBSAs are fully managed, so they're all completely hands-off and stress-free investments.
Reasons to invest in PBSAs
High-yield returns
The UK's student accommodation market presents a golden opportunity to secure stable, high-yield returns for longer periods. Our PBSAs come with a 10 year rental guarantee, compared to 0-3 years for typical buy to lets.
Fully hands-off investment
We handle absolutely everything with our PBSAs, including letting the properties, managing the entire tenant lifecycle, and maintaining both the rooms/apartments and communal areas of the building.
High demand
In most university cities across the UK, there is a critical shortage of student accommodation. Many universities have just a couple of thousand dedicated halls of residence rooms, with the remaining students having to go into the residential market, mostly house-shares.
Investing in student accommodation provides a fantastic winning scenario for investors: higher than average returns for a completely hands-off investment, and for a guarantee of 10 years.

I’ve been with Global Phoenix for six years now. It's been literally a hands off investment. In fact, I didn't even receive keys to my two flats in Liverpool. They've been absolutely reliable, efficient, trustworthy and very good. Keep up the good work and thank you for all you do.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What is a PBSA?
PBSA stands for Purpose-Built Student Accommodation. It refers to residential properties developed specifically for students, often featuring shared living spaces like cluster flats or self-contained studios. These developments typically include amenities and facilities catering to student needs, distinguishing them from traditional student housing or private rentals.
Net yields represent your return on investment after deducting expenses like management fees and maintenance costs. High net yields, such as the up to 10% offered by Global Phoenix, indicate a more profitable investment. For example, if you invest £200,000, and after paying all expenses like maintenance and taxes, you net £20,000 in profit, your net yield would be 10%
Q. What are net yields, and why are they important?
Q. Do I have to pay stamp duty?
That depends. With the entry-level of Student Accommodation typically being below £125k, investors will pay no Stamp Duty rates as introduced by The Finance Act 2016. However, some exceptions do apply. We'll be able to fully guide you through the process with ease.
Q. What's the difference between this and a residential property investment?
There are many differences between PBSA investments and a residential buy to let, including rental yields, guaranteed rental income, and locations available. Our team will be able to guide you through all options, so you can decide what the best investment for you is will full confidence.

The main difference for an investor is that the initial investment in an assisted living property might be higher compared to standard residential purchases. However, this should be viewed as a strategic advantage. You are entering a market with substantial growth potential and unparalleled stability, while making a valuable contribution to the community.
