Kennedy Wilson closes construction loans for three student housing projects

Kennedy Wilson has recently closed senior construction loans for the development of three student housing projects totaling $184 million at the University of Wisconsin – Madison, University of North Texas, and University of California, Berkeley. These recent deals, completed through Kennedy Wilson’s debt investment platform, expand the student housing loan portfolio to $850 million to develop approximately 8,800 beds, with an additional $1 billion of new student housing loans totaling 8,200 beds currently being evaluated. Currently in various stages of construction, the three projects offer proximity to university facilities and feature expansive amenity spaces, resort-style pools and spas, fitness centers, outdoor lounges, private study rooms, meditation space, and controlled garage access.
