In 2007, Teunissen completed his first student housing project with 45 rooms. Following this experience, he was approached by his former student landlord to buy one of his buildings. Teunissen seized the opportunity, investing all his capital and taking out a substantial loan.. This mentor helped him renovate the building and enter the student accommodation business.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

Teunissen has consolidated its operations under the banner of Xior Student Housing<\/strong>a company in continuous growth. Under the financial direction of Frederik Snauwaert, Xior went public in 2015<\/strong>becoming the first and only listed company in Europe to specialize in student accommodation. This initial public offering valued at 200 million euros in assets, was a turning point for the company, whose assets have now risen to between 1.1 and 1.5 billion euros.<\/strong> Christian Teunissen<\/strong> has succeeded in building an enormous estate worth over 250 million euros. <\/p>\n\n\n

Xior's workforce has grown from 12 to 70, with Teunissen now recognized as the 'kotbaas' (student accommodation owner) for 9,000 students. The student accommodation market has become increasingly international and professional, with ever stricter regulations on minimum dimensions and fire safety. <\/strong>This change gradually squeezed small private owners out of the market.<\/p>\n\n\n
