Nicosia, Cyprus. Cyprus-based PropTech startup MyStudentFlat said it is scaling its student housing operations locally while preparing to enter the Greek market later this year.
Platform focus and positioning
MyStudentFlat describes itself as the first Cypriot PropTech startup focused exclusively on student housing, offering fully furnished and equipped apartments near major universities through its digital platform, mystudentflat.com.
Target users and market approach
The company targets students and parents, property owners and investors, aiming to address inefficiencies in a student accommodation market it describes as fragmented, opaque and poorly organised.
Digital process and property access
The platform operates as a Student Housing as a Service digital platform, enabling users to search, book, sign contracts electronically and pay rent entirely online.
According to the company, the model removes intermediaries and provides direct access to properties that are either owned by MyStudentFlat or managed exclusively through long-term “lease and sub-lease” agreements, allowing full control over quality and availability.
Current locations and expansion plans
The platform currently offers student flats near leading universities in Nicosia and near TE.PA.K in Limassol, with expansion planned across Cyprus and into Greece in 2026.
Features for students and families
For students and families, MyStudentFlat said it is designed to address challenges including outdated or misleading listings, unsuitable apartments, repeated dealings with agents, and the need to travel to view properties.
Each apartment is presented using a 360-degree digital presentation, including detailed descriptions, HD photos, video tours and precise location data.
The booking process is fully online and immediate, with no intermediaries or manual paperwork.
Tenant support
Registered tenants gain access to a dedicated application offering 24/7 tenant support, including instant maintenance requests and continuous communication throughout the tenancy period.
