The RDJ Real Estate team advised Elkstone Real Estate on the sale of Copley Court, a 265-bed purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) scheme in Cork city centre, to US-headquartered real estate group Greystar.

Located adjacent to Cork City Hall, Copley Court comprises 265 beds together with a range of resident amenities including a gym, private and group study spaces, and a student lounge and games area. The scheme has operated at or near full occupancy since its relaunch in 2019 and is situated approximately 3km from University College Cork.

The acquisition represents Greystar’s fourth investment in the Irish PBSA sector and further strengthens its position as one of Ireland’s largest student accommodation providers. The transaction was completed on behalf of Greystar Equity Partners Europe II (GEPE II), Greystar’s pan-European value-add residential fund.

The RDJ team advising Elkstone Real Estate was led by Evin McCarthy (Real Estate) and Aoife Brannigan (Real Estate).
