UK Resi Funding Gap
It’s only illogical!
- Dry Powder - Is it the reason for the gap? How are dynamics changing between lenders, borrowers, and investors?
- Regional Growth Bubbles - Is London where resilience is strongest or is there value emerging elsewhere?
- Affordability - How can we balance out operational costs, inflation, and final consumer pricing?
- Inflation vs. Value - Can funding keep up or will we need to hold on for now?
- Supply & Demand - Does the housing crisis spell out opportunity or should we be wary of high costs?
14:30-15:30
Student Housing
All hail the safety net or getting crowded?
- Capital - Still institutional game or pricing right for wider capital pool?
- Location - Which countries in Europe are the “popular kids”?
- Zero Carbon - Greenfield or Brownfield?
- Affordability of Tenants - Is the changing demographic of students impacting supply/ demand
- Product Innovation - Competitive advantages to portfolios or too hard to measure?
