In July 2019, a survey conducted by the British Council in Singapore found that the top three factors overseas students think about when deciding where to stay are the distance to campus, the availability of public transport and rental cost. *Mapletree *is a leading real estate development, investment, capital and property management company headquartered in Singapore, with assets located across 12 markets worldwide. The Group currently owns and manages S$55.7 billion (as at 31 March 2019) of office, retail, logistics, industrial, residential and lodging properties.
