In a saturated market where many sellers struggled to maintain pricing power, this deal required precision execution. Rather than relying on traditional marketing to local student housing operators, many of whom had stepped back, we leveraged our network of local and foreign high-net-worth capital, including overseas buyers we could directly engage in Mandarin. By reaching investors who rarely surface in the open market and pairing that with under-the-radar buyer reps, we generated strong competition, multiple offers, and achieved full list price. We closed at $1,066,666 per unit, one of the highest price-per-unit outcomes achieved for this product type in today’s environment. A true win-win: the seller unwound the asset with strong returns, and the buyer acquires a high-yield, newly built property in one of the most supply-constrained and resilient student housing markets in the country. The Ben Lee Group continues to emerge as a leader in student housing — and the clear choice for niche development assets including affordable housing, co-living, and entitled sites.
