Argent Related has pinpointed build-to-rent as a core part of its growth plans as a rebrand sees the US and UK partners in the venture switch places.
The developer, established in 2015 when Argent and Related Companies joined forces, wants to “significantly expand” its build-to-rent portfolio, which currently comprises some 3,000 homes across its development pipeline.
The company announced the push alongside a rebranding as Related Argent, a move it said would reinforce the company’s “reputation… to access global capital markets”. Related Companies raises some $8bn annually for its real estate business.
