Student Accommodation

Keep student housing safe and compliant.

AnyInspect helps student accommodation providers manage fire safety inspections, condition surveys, and compliance checks across halls of residence and PBSA developments — with video evidence and AI-generated reports.

Student housing inspections are high-stakes and high-volume.

Student accommodation providers face unique challenges — tight turnaround windows between academic terms, strict fire safety requirements for HMOs, and the need to inspect hundreds of rooms and communal areas efficiently.

  • Completing fire safety and condition inspections across hundreds of rooms within tight turnaround windows.
  • Maintaining compliance documentation for fire safety, legionella, and building safety across multiple sites.
  • Coordinating inspection schedules between academic terms when access is limited and turnaround is tight.

Inspect more rooms in less time.

AnyInspect helps student housing teams work faster without sacrificing quality or compliance.
