Brickmoor
In Q2 2021 Moorfield established a joint venture with Bricklane, a technology-enabled sourcing and management platform, to effectively and programmatically originate, acquire, and manage a portfolio of individually acquired existing residential properties for rent, at scale. Technology allows the joint venture to identify attractive target markets and to source higher yielding properties in those target markets that meet the sourcing and investment parameters set by Moorfield to satisfy investment and risk objectives.
The joint venture deploys capital into the inefficient, often unprofessional and dispersed Private Rented Sector (PRS) / Singlefamily (SFH) for rent market to create value through selective aggregation and to seek to create an institutional quality portfolio. This is conducted in line with Moorfield’s brand standards and customer service focus.
Wakmoor
Wakmoor is a joint venture with We Are Kin, an existing specialist operator and investor in student Houses of Multiple Occupation (HMO).
This joint venture targets the creation of a portfolio of HMOs targeted at students and acquired across regional cities. This is an opportunity to capture a significant demand/supply gap in the market for good quality and good value student homes that are well designed and fitted out, tech enabled, and delivered with excellent levels of service and innovation. Most institutional investors have to date focussed on the Purpose Built Student Accommodation (PBSA) market that particularly targets international students. We also believe there is an opportunity to improve the offering for domestic students who typically live in HMOs.
The Apiary, Ealing
Development of The Apiary commenced in early 2022 and once complete will be an 81-studio co-living scheme in Ealing, London. Co-living is a subset of the residential for rent market that in terms of design, layout and cost sits between BTR and Purpose-Built Student Accommodation.
The building is adjacent to Ealing Broadway station which provides strong connectivity into and out of central London, and which is further improved by the Elizabeth line (Crossrail) opening in 2022. The scheme will target young professionals in search of affordable yet premium quality living and has been designed to achieve BREAAM Very Good as a minimum standard.
