Salford could face a shortage in student housing after Manchester's crisis was predicted to 'worsen' last year
'Significant' housing shortages for university students are set to worsen from September when thousands more will flock to cities across the UK.
As of last November, there were 4,000 more students than there were rooms available in halls of residence, shared houses, and private purpose-built student accommodation according to data from StuRents, a student property search site. “Unless there is currently a ‘spade in the ground’, actual building is unlikely to happen: developers are struggling to maintain viability because of volatile build and funding costs,” Mr Blakey warned.
It suggests that significant numbers of international postgraduate students have found it hard to find somewhere appropriate to live, and many are in temporary accommodation which 'adversely affects their studies'. “The problems stem from high interest rates, which make building new accommodation less affordable, excessive regulation, seen most clearly in Scotland in recent years, and deflation in students’ real incomes, which makes it harder for them to cover rent.”
