As the UK’s largest manager of single-family Build to Rent homes, we’re the experts when it comes to optimising BTR and PRS portfolios. With constant shifts in supply and demand, the UK housing market offers vast potential. And because it offers rapid growth and stable long-term returns, the BTR sector is particularly ripe with opportunity. Yet in spite of this bottom-line appeal, managing properties, tenancies and communities at scale can be a complex task and a daunting prospect for investors. That’s where Ascend comes in. Partnering with industry-leading property funds, we provide award-winning end-to-end management of over 11,000 properties, valued at c. £2bn in today’s market. We make it easier for investors to yield stable, long-term returns, all whilst ensuring assets are managed effectively and maintaining excellent customer service. As a result, we’re the proud winners of over 90 industry awards. With over two thirds of the UK’s SFR stock under our management across 140+ developments, we have the experience to manage every aspect of a portfolio – from pre-build consultancy to ongoing management and beyond. What’s more, we’ve developed cutting-edge bespoke technology platforms and automated efficiencies, enabling our specialist teams to provide high-quality, low-hassle service and complete peace of mind for investors. While retaining and growing bricks and mortar value, we work to harness a portfolio’s potential to deliver maximum ROI for our partners, and an unmatched rental experience for residents: making Build to Rent more rewarding for all.
