The Kexgill Group successfully notarised part of its German property portfolio in Berlin on Friday (1 August 2025), marking another step forward in its long-term strategy. The transaction was formalised in the presence of the buyer and agent Sascha Moayed.
This divestment supports the Group’s strategic pivot towards deeper engagement with UK university partnerships, forming a cornerstone of its community-focused and affordable student housing model.
Commenting on the transaction, Richard Stott highlighted the efficiency and clarity of the German notary system compared to conveyancing in England and Wales, with one neutral, central point of contact, a single point of legal responsibility, and faster, more certain outcomes, avoiding protracted legal back-and-forth.
The timing of this transaction is significant for the company. It comes just weeks ahead of Stephen Willis formally joining the Kexgill Group as Joint Managing Director.
Stephen’s arrival will coincide with a new phase of growth, including formal announcements on upcoming public-private collaborations reflecting Kexgill’s (University Quarter) commitment to scalable, high-quality purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) in partnership with leading universities across the UK.
