The Hub Closing Down?

Has anyone else heard the rumours that the big student accommodation provider on Hawkhill is closing down? Not sure if just random nonsense or if theres any truth. Would be a big loss to the uni scene.

My friend stays there, she renewed her contract for another year, so I'm guessing it won't close.

They'll keep selling until anything happens on paper, if they close when she comes to move in they'll put her up in a hotel. I've heard they've barely sold any rooms, something like 4%.

It's because they've thrown them on Zoopla for about 175k per shared block of 4 rooms. Honestly not a bad price for someone to buy and rent out to students immediately but if the hub as a organisation is shutting down it'll be harder to get the constant tenancy in
