Starlight Investments Expands UK Portfolio with the Acquisition of Recently Completed Rental Residence in Leeds, UK
The nine-storey newly built residence features a range of attractive suite layouts, including one-bedroom, two-bedroom and three-bedroom suites with many featuring balconies as well as larger terraces on the top floor. The property contains high-quality amenities including a co-working space, media room and a dedicated resident lounge. The building's design also incorporates renewable energy systems and high-efficiency lighting.
As one of the largest cities in the country, Leeds is recognized as a key financial centre and is home to several major employers. It is also highly ranked as a top student city, with five universities and a large student population.
In May 2023, Starlight announced the official launch of its European residential asset management platform through the formation of a new partnership with multiple global institutional partners focused on the UK BTR market. This latest acquisition represents the continued momentum behind Starlight's growing UK presence.
"This new residence is a strategic addition to our UK portfolio and further complements our previously announced BTR acquisitions in Manchester, Liverpool and Ashford and will increase our overall portfolio in the UK to 1,038 suites with an additional 1,200 suites in our active pipeline," said Daniel Drimmer, Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Starlight Investments. "We are pleased to establish Starlight's presence in Leeds, a dynamic city that is among the fastest growing in the UK, to support the introduction of new rental housing to meet increasing demand."
