Build to Rent homes to increase five-fold

Build to Rent homes to increase five-fold

In this speed read, we look at the predicted increase over the next 5-10 years of Build to Rent

  • The stock of Build to Rent (BTR) homes in the UK is forecast to increase five-fold over the next 10 years from 76,800 today, to 380,000 in 2032, according to the British Property Federation (BPF).
  • At present, just 1.5% of rental homes are BTR but that will rise to 8.5% if these forecasts are met. Until now, developers have focused on London and other major cities such as Manchester, Birmingham and Leeds.
  • Build to Rent homes are purpose-built for rental and managed by professional operators. They are generally built to a high standard and offer greater security of tenure, shared amenities, community events and, in some cases, rent inclusive of bills.
  • BTR providers are delivering urban apartments and suburban family homes. As the sector matures, it will expand the range of options for renters and play a growing role in addressing the UK’s housing shortage.

If you’re planning to sell your home in Attleborough, there’s a truth you can’t ignore: not every property makes it from “For Sale” to “Sold.” While some homes attract buyers quickly, others linger and quietly disappear from the market. The difference isn’t luck—it’s about strategy, timing, and knowing what really sells here.

Saleability is about more than just securing an offer—it’s the journey from listing to handing over the keys. Higher-value homes often face smaller buyer pools, tougher lending checks, and longer chains, which can make completion harder. Success lies in preparation: realistic pricing, organised paperwork, and clear communication to keep the process
