Important Disclaimer

This calculator provides indicative estimates from beds, yield, and occupancy — not a Red Book opinion. Results can differ materially from a RICS valuation once scheme specifics are inspected. For methodology, read PBSA valuations. For a scheme-specific indicative range, request a free valuation. This tool is for initial guidance only.

Methodology

PBSA Income Analysis

Our calculator calculates gross rental income based on bed count, monthly rent per bed, and occupancy rates. We apply realistic expense ratios (18%) to determine net yield, providing a comprehensive view of your PBSA scheme's income potential.

PBSA Market Adjustment

The valuation applies location-specific premiums and target yields based on real PBSA market data. We factor in property condition, university proximity, occupancy rates, and expected market growth to provide accurate, location-aware PBSA valuations.

PBSA Investment Assessment

The calculator compares calculated bed yields against PBSA market targets to assess investment attractiveness and risk profile. This helps determine whether your student accommodation scheme meets institutional PBSA investor standards and provides clear guidance on investment potential.

Data Sources

Calculator inputs draw on market data including student accommodation sales, bed yields, occupancy, and location conditions. For income capitalisation, NOI, and Red Book context, use the PBSA valuations guide — this page is a modelling tool only.
