PROPTECH-X ‘Proptech & Property’ News Weekly Roundup: Novyy | NAPB | ResidentIQ

A roundup of the week’s top proptech and property news in association with Estate Agent Networking.

What is the demand for student accommodation?

According to The Founder and CEO of Novyy, Ashish Saraff, “In recent years, student accommodation has been referred to as the greatest performing asset in the United Kingdom”.

Tantalisingly though he adds, “Is this the secret to reaping the greatest financial rewards from a property investment, or merely a pipe dream?”

Ashish Saraff then gives a much fuller thesis, saying that “there has been an exponential increase in student desire for the whole university experience since the COVID-19 pandemic. “

With limited student budgets and escalating living costs, it is difficult for students to find housing on campus, forcing them to look for alternatives such as the private rental sector.


NAPB: Just 500 new homes being built every day across England, latest figures reveal

PRESS RELEASE: Only 500 new homes a day are being built across England every day – leaving a whole generation of people facing the prospect of being unable to own a property.

The figure, uncovered by the National Association of Property Buyers, comes months after the Government abandoned a target to build 300,000 new homes a year.

Latest figures show why Ministers decided to take that step.

Analysis of the latest official data by the NAPB, shows 46,230 properties were constructed in England between April and June last year… which is about 500 a day.

That’s way off the Government’s previously stated target of around 830 a day.
