Invest in PBSA in Milan
with a specialised operator.

In-Domus is an Italian private operator based in Milan and a leading player in the Purpose-Built Student Accommodation (PBSA) sector. We offer investors competitive returns, with a strong commitment to sustainability.

We are a vertically specialised operator, with a model built around three key variables for investors: structural demand, operational risk control, and long-term resilience.

PBSA Leadership
in Milan

Oggi In-Domus gestisce circa il 25% del mercato PBSA privato a Milano, con oltre 1.000 posti letto attivi e una pipeline di sviluppo che porterà la capacità complessiva a circa 2.500 posti letto nei prossimi anni. Questa crescita è intenzionalmente concentrata su un unico mercato, che conosciamo in profondità, e su un’unica asset class, che presidiamo in modo verticale. La scelta di non disperdere il modello su geografie o prodotti eterogenei ci consente di ridurre il rischio, mantenere coerenza gestionale e costruire valore in modo progressivo.

In-Domus’s positioning is built on a deliberate balance between accessibility and quality. Our residences combine genuinely affordable solutions with a measured premium offering, avoiding aggressive pricing strategies that can undermine occupancy or damage reputation over time.

Likewise, our properties are dedicated exclusively to students. We do not adopt hybrid models involving tourist accommodation or short stays, as we believe that a stable, well-regulated and homogeneous community is a key factor in quality of life and in the long-term resilience of the asset.

This approach has a direct impact on performance. Structural demand, a coherent community and living environments designed to last generate high occupancy levels, reduce turnover and simplify operational management. In-Domus does not view student residences as assets to be maximised in the short term, but as housing systems that must operate reliably, year after year.

Fondazione Cariplo

A guarantee of method, vision and governance

The origins of In-Domus under the aegis of Fondazione Cariplo represent a distinctive element of our model. Our focus on the right to education, transparency and social responsibility is not a statement of intent, but a structural component of our governance and operational decisions.
In this sense, ESG criteria are not a formal compliance exercise, but a concrete driver of economic resilience: over time, an ethical model proves to be more robust and less exposed to reputational or regulatory risk.

In-Domus supports investors throughout the entire PBSA project lifecycle, from origination and development through to mobilisation and ongoing operational management. We operate through flexible contractual structures—management contracts, master leases and hybrid frameworks—adapting each structure to the investor’s risk profile and objectives. In every configuration, one principle remains constant: aligned interests, clear reporting and a continuous focus on performance quality.

Why In-Domus?

Investing with In-Domus means choosing a specialised operator with an established presence in the Milan market, a coherent residential model and a long-term vision. We do not promise shortcuts; instead, we offer a system designed to perform over time, in a sector where the quality of management is the true differentiating factor.

Sustainability as a value driver in the long term.

Sustainability is an integral part of In-Domus’s business model and governance, not an ancillary commitment.
Our approach to ESG criteria is based on the conviction that social responsibility, environmental efficiency and transparent management are essential elements in building PBSA assets that are resilient over time. By promoting access to education, fostering stable and inclusive student communities, and managing residences with a long-term operational perspective, we reduce volatility, protect asset value and strengthen the sustainability of returns. Environmental efficiency, responsible resource management and clear governance are therefore not only ethical choices, but concrete tools for risk mitigation and long-term value creation for investors.
