LOFT to host and sponsor UK Single Family Housing Association launch event at pop-up showroom in White City, London.

LOFT is hosting and sponsoring a prestigious launch event of the UK Single Family Association (UKSFA) on the 22nd February 2024, from 4pm at LOFT's new pop-up showroom in White City. The event is designed to offer those interested and involved in Build To Rent housing an opportunity to learn more about the vision, mission and purpose of the organization.

Houses dominate the UK housing landscape, and the Build-to-Rent and wider purpose-managed rental industry is conscious of growing demand and the potential of investing in houses. Momentum is gathering at a remarkable pace. This launch event is a great opportunity to be a part of the conversation and learn more about the future of Single-Family Rental housing in the UK.

LOFT is proud to be on the board of the UK SFA. We're thrilled to be part of such a distinguished and experienced group of industry professionals. Our shared expertise, insights, and leadership is invaluable as we work to promote and enhance the single-family rental sector in the UK. We are committed to representing the interests of our members and driving the growth of the industry.

According to Savills recent Single-Family Housing (SFH) report, the Private Rented Sector (PRS) stopped growing in 2016 and there are strong signals that Buy to Let investors are exiting the market. Their analysis of UK Finance data shows that between December 2022 and August 2023, an average of 4,500 Buy-to-let mortgages were redeemed every month. Assuming these lead to sales, we will lose more than half a million rental homes in ten years. This leaves a large supply gap that will need to be filled by new investment.

UK SFH has attracted over £3.5 billion of investment to date, despite being a relatively nascent sector. This year marked a step change in the pace of SFH investment, with nearly £1.5 billion deployed to November 2023. Housebuilders’ increasing sales to SFH will help to grow the market moving forward.

The UKSFA recognizes the distinct benefits and challenges that investing in and operating Single-Family Rental (SFR) brings. As a not-for-profit members organization representing the whole housing and construction spectrum, the UKSFA aims to provide a stronger, collective voice in the UK for investors, operators, manufacturers, architects, construction companies, housebuilders, housing associations, local authorities, as well as specialist contractors, suppliers, and legal firms.    

LOFT has been successfully providing interior design and furnishing solutions for the operational capital markets sector since 2003. Our pop-up showroom in White City has been built to help redesign living spaces focusing upon creating comfort, security, well-being and sustainability for modern residents.   

Don't miss this opportunity to be a part of the UK-SFA movement.
