WHAT BUILD-TO-RENT MEANS HERE
In Oldham, all 5 are already letting of the 5 build-to-rent schemes on record. 5 operators run schemes here, including Ascend Living, Four Corners and Ocasa; in each scheme tenants deal with one professional landlord for viewings, repairs and renewals rather than with individual owners. A build-to-rent scheme is owned as a whole and let by one operator, which usually means longer tenancy options and a single point of contact. 4 of the 5 are single-family estates of houses; the rest are apartment buildings.
