Q.

Is there a criteria for ‘build to rents’ tenants?

A.

Whilst Acorn has guidelines for tenant criteria, each corporate landlord or scheme may also have its own criteria. If a certain property has caught your eye please get in touch and we discuss the criteria for that particular property. Our team can be reached on 020 8315 6917.

Q.

How do I know if the land I own would be suitable for a ‘build to rent’ scheme?

A.

Get in touch! Our experts deal with many clients confidentially to ensure any land either currently owned or yet to be acquired is suitable for ‘build to rent’, and if it’s not, we will put you in touch with our lovely colleagues in New Homes Sales. Start the process by calling us today on 020 8315 6917.

Q.

At what stage should I contact the Build to Rent division about my scheme?

A.

It’s never too early! Some of our clients come to us with buildings ready to go, while others are yet to apply for planning. Thanks to our experience letting over 2,500 BTR apartments, we have a great deal of experience, and we use our historic data to help us analyse schemes on behalf of clients. While the rental market is fluid, we like to provide ERV reports at the earliest stage that can then be updated throughout construction. To find out more about how we may be able to help, give us a call on 020 8315 6917.
