GSA buys 2,200-bed Spanish student digs portfolio

Funds managed by Global Student Accommodation have bought the 2,200-bed student accommodation portfolio Nexo Residencias from Threesixty Developments, a company owned by funds managed by Oaktree Capital Management.

Nexo is a full service platform in Spain that develops, owns and operates student housing schemes and has assets in Madrid and Barcelona.

Oaktree sold its UK student housing platform and 7,100-bed portfolio to GSA in September 2016.

Nicholas Porter, founder and chairman of GSA said: “We continue to deliver on our rapid European expansion plans, targeting higher education markets where there is a substantial supply-demand imbalance.”

JLL’s corporate finance and alternatives teams acted as financial and real estate advisors to Threesixty.
