Our student accommodation development philosophy embarks on providing accommodation that offers strategic choice of locations, coupled with cutting-edge design and exceptional build quality.

Demand for student accommodation is increasingly high, leading to more and more Purpose-Built Student Accommodation (PBSA) developments being built to overcome what seems like an endless shortfall in supply not only in South Africa but worldwide. With most university cities in South Africa suffering from a structural under-supply of quality student accommodation, this is the perfect time to invest, therefore Eris Property Group is currently invested in supplying high standards of construction and innovative design at optimal cost of our student accommodation developments.

Our student accommodation is based on a 6-principle philosophy namely;

• Affordability
• Convenient Locations
• Quality Accommodation
• Safety & Security
• Health & Safety
• Great Student Experiences

Eris Property Group has three key focus areas in the student accommodation market namely:

• Development Management
• Investment in Student Accommodation
• Real Estate Management

Today’s students demand quality, affordability and exceptional connectivity with easy links to learning and leisure facilities as a standard.

Our service offering is flexible and responsive, drawing on our experience and expertise of real estate development around the continent.

DEVELOPMENT MANAGEMENT

Our student accommodation development philosophy includes the provision of accommodation that offers strategic choice of locations, coupled with contemporary design, inclusion of student specific facilities and exceptional build quality.
