- 30th Oct 24
The Build to Rent Awards, hosted by Love to Rent, returned for its second year, marking a triumphant moment for the sector and surpassing all expectations with more than double the number of entries across all categories compared to last year's inaugural event.
Celebrating excellence within the rapidly growing Build to Rent sector, the awards showcased the effort and dedication that go into creating vibrant communities, designed to offer lifestyle benefits that cater to residents' unique needs. By showcasing a wide range of categories, these awards give prospective customers a deeper understanding of the lifestyle advantages that Build to Rent homes offer from sustainability through to design and onsite teams and amenities.
The awards are an extension of the Love to Rent culture, which presents clear, customer-focused insights into the unique benefits and varied choices within Build to Rent living. As the first and leading digital marketing platform exclusively for Build to Rent, Love to Rent plays a pivotal role in educating people about a range of housing options available.
The growth of the awards reflects the commitment of developers and suppliers to deliver meaningful housing options that prioritise quality, convenience, and community for residents while ensuring recognition for every corner of the sector.
From developers pioneering new standards in housing to suppliers who provide the essential services that bring these spaces to life, the awards showcased the depth and breadth of talent and innovation that defines this industry.
"Seeing the Build to Rent Awards grow so significantly in just one year is a testament to the incredible passion and innovation driving this sector," said Anne-Marie Brown, Founder of Love to Rent. "These awards spotlight the outstanding work being done to create communities that enhance residents’ lives, and it's inspiring to witness such commitment to quality and community from every corner of the industry."
As the Build to Rent Awards continue to grow, this year’s event has set the standards and potential of the sector, redefining rental living for the better. The winners were thrilled to be recognised for their dedication and achievements, which reflect their commitment to providing exceptional living experiences for residents and highlighting the importance of Build to Rent as a solution to modern housing needs. Many took to social media to share their excitement, celebrating their achievements and the recognition of excellence in the sector.
“What a way to end the week, honoured to be part of the team that picked up this fantastic award for Coppermaker Square as Best Build to Rent Development (London),” said Mandy Ghumman. “Having worked on this project as Marketing Lead for Greystar International from the very beginning of its launch, it’s wonderful that it’s been given its well-deserved recognition at the Build to Rent Awards this year.”
This was echoed by Alex Gooch, Head of Build to Rent at Inventory Hive who were awarded the Highly Commended accolade in the Best Supplier category: “I think it’s safe to say, Love to Rent absolutely smashed it out of the park on Friday hosting a brilliant event at The Londoner Hotel, bringing everyone together to celebrate the successes of the sector.”
