Developers of two student housing blocks in Dublin told local planners tenants would be offered 40-week leases
Ministers have instructed their officials to “engage” with student housing operators after two of the big players in the sector said they will offer students only 51-week tenancies for the 2024/25 academic year.acted after student landlords Aparto and Yugo – which offer more than 4,500 bed spaces in Dublin and Cork between them – decided they will no longer offer 41-week leases in line with the college year.
Student management plans submitted as part of the original planning process for a number of Aparto’s Dublin accommodations stipulated the letting period would be 40 weeks. The planning permissions granted for Dorset Point and Binary Hub were subject to conditions which included that the facilities be operated in line with those student management plans.
Property group Hines, which owns Aparto, told The Irish Times it operates fully “within the remit of its statutory obligation”.
