DeA Capital Real Estate, Invesco Real Estate and Banque des Territoires are continuing to expand their student accommodation portfolio in France with the acquisition of two former office buildings located in Issy-les-Moulineaux and Boulogne-Billancourt, which will be converted into residential complexes specifically designed for students. The total investment value of the two transactions amounts to approximately 300 million euros.

The two properties will be refurbished to provide high-quality student accommodation, creating around 550 new beds in the western part of the Île-de-France region. Management will be entrusted to Camplus, a specialist operator in the sector. The new halls of residence will aim to achieve NF Habitat HQE certification – Excellent 7-star standard.

The two properties

Located near the main university campuses and major business centres in the western part of Paris, the two halls of residence will offer students high-standard accommodation, and both facilities are expected to welcome their first students at the start of the 2028 academic year.

The residential complex in Issy-les-Moulineaux, designed by the architectural firm Quadri Fiore and situated at 41–43 Rue Camille Desmoulins and 8 Rue Rouget de l’Isle, will cover an area of approximately 7,000 square metres. The building will be demolished and redeveloped to create accommodation for 314 students.

In Boulogne-Billancourt, the building at 62 Rue Louis Blériot, designed by the architectural firm Baumschlager, covers an area of approximately 5,000 square metres and is to be refurbished and converted into a student residence capable of accommodating 232 students.

The platform

With these latest acquisitions, from Assembly and Eternam, the entire portfolio will comprise seven student halls of residence and over 2,000 beds, all strategically located near major universities. “The conversion of these former office buildings into residential properties,” said Pierre Julin, Managing Director of DeA Capital Real Estate France, “addresses the structural shortage of student accommodation and supports the regeneration of the property portfolio in the western part of the Île-de-France region.” “With these new transactions,” added Alexandre Rochet, Head of Transactions at Invesco, “we have expanded our portfolio to seven student residences with over 2,000 beds in less than two years.”

“By repurposing former office sites,” explained Barbara Monreal Munoz, deputy head of property at the Banque des Territoires, “we are supporting the city’s transformation whilst meeting the needs of students.” “2026,” concluded Maurizio Carvelli, CEO and founder of Camplus, “marks our entry into the French market, following our expansion into Spain. These two new student residences will enable us to consolidate our presence in France’s major university cities.”
