The build-to-rent model in the UK is to provide an alternative housing solution to those who are looking for high-spec homes, specifically new build houses and apartments. The standard of living that built-to-rent provides allows residents to put roots down in quality homes, whether you’re on the way to home ownership or enjoying the freedom of not having a mortgage.
With professional service from property management teams, build-to-rent aims to provide a first-rate rental experience. These excellent quality homes have longer term tenancies and are often located in larger towns and cities, making them desirable to a large demographic of people.
Build-to-rent means a property has been built specifically to rent the house or flat out to tenants rather than sell the property. All homes on a build-to-rent development will be available to rent, so people will share a community with like-minded residents.
Buy-to-let means a property has been purchased for the purpose of renting out. This means a private landlord or rental business has purchased properties outright or via a buy-to-let mortgage. These properties are often managed through letting agents or privately by a landlord.
Typically, build-to-rent properties do not include bills, and residents are responsible for setting up utility providers such as gas, electricity and broadband.
At Simple Life Homes, we do include property maintenance as part of our services, with residents being able to access professional maintenance care 24/7
All residents have access to the ‘My Simple Life’ app, which is a fantastic resource for residents where they can access to exclusive deals on offers that can help drive down the cost of living.
