Lloyds Banking Group has confirmed its strong commitment to the residential rental market with a major expansion of its Build-to-Rent (BTR) portfolio.

Through a recently announced deal with a prominent house builder, the Group has dramatically increased its housing stock. This latest acquisition brings the total number of homes under its BTR operation to an impressive 7,600 units.

This significant growth confirms the bank’s strategy to become a major institutional player in the rental sector, providing thousands of new rental homes across the UK and signalling robust confidence in the long-term viability and returns of the Build-to-Rent market. This move will undoubtedly influence the supply and dynamics of rental housing in key areas.
