The attractiveness of build-to-rent property is on a constant rise, especially with rental prices forecast to continue their growth and levels of supply dropping further.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Build-to-rent is the single biggest sector in the future of the UK\u2019s property market. The property market\u2019s tower of strength, build-to-rent was forecast to see floods of investment coming its way. This was mainly due to the simple fact that there was a loophole in the regulations for the new stamp duty tax changes. Then Chancellor Osborne announced that build-to-rent wouldn\u2019t be excluded from the new surcharge.<\/p>\n

So why would we say that build-to-rent is the way to go? For three very simple reasons.<\/p>\n

1. Low cost, high value<\/em><\/p>\n

Ever since the additional stamp duty charge came into force in April the property market has become more expensive for investors. Build-to-rent, however, is often priced below market value and high yielding.<\/p>\n

Investing in off-plan, build-to-rent property means the deals you are getting are will be cheaper than \u201ctraditional\u201d property<\/a>. This little perk might – quite possibly – cancel out the extra costs the new stamp duty rules made you pay. It will make your new property a working investment.<\/p>\n

2. Guarantee<\/em><\/p>\n

Investment bears risks. This shouldn\u2019t be news to any investor. It always did and it always will. And with the Government seemingly clamping down on buy-to-let investors, it\u2019s more than understandable for fears to grow.<\/p>\n

Build-to-rent makes that fear shrink again<\/a> . Many developers offer guaranteed or assured return over a certain period of time, taking away the fear that\u2019s present in any investor. They give trust.<\/p>\n

3. Sustainability<\/em><\/p>\n

Homeownership is becoming less popular in the UK<\/a>. Generation Rent is growing and they appear mostly happy to do so, which may potentially lead to long-term rental stability, similar to countries like Germany.<\/p>\n

The number of homeowners dropped from 66% in the 1990s to only 62.5% currently. This means more and more people are becoming comfortable with the idea of renting their accommodation, even with the economy improving.<\/p>\n
