SHI 0404 - Beyond Our Borders

As purpose built student housing grows in popularity as an asset class, investors are looking for opportunities beyond the US borders as well.  However, those countries typically lack the operational expertise that we have in the US.  This has allowed US operators the opportunity to expand management services to those countries.  In this episode, Wes sits down with a panel of operators from the US and the UK who are operating beyond their borders.  We discuss the challenges, the opportunities, and the similarities in operating student housing in other countries.

Chris Richards, Greystar

Beth Pinder, CA Ventures
