The latest analysis published by the British Property Federation in conjunction with Savills shows the build-to-rent sector continues to grow at pace, with the number of completed homes increasing by a fifth (19%) in the past 12 months.

Conducted at the end of Q1 2022, the analysis shows that a total of 72,668 build-to-rent homes have now been delivered in the UK, up from 60,965 a year ago, with completions in the past year evenly spread across London (5,802 homes) and regional cities (5,901).
