Acting for Singapore-based property firm Far East Orchard, we are delighted to announce that our Student Accommodation team has completed on the purchase of the Emily Davies Halls of Residence, a purpose-built student accommodation development in Southampton, for £13.9 million.

This transaction involved input from across the firm with the team made up of Partners and Associates from Commercial Real Estate, Construction, Planning, Residential, Corporate, Employment and Tax.
