This book examines the rise of the build-to-rent movement in the UK, describes the potential of the BTR model in terms of both economic and climate sustainability, and evaluates its key ingredients to success.

The Rise of Build to Rent in the UK
Build to Rent (BTR) is a form of residential tenure which first emerged in the United States, where it is known as Multifamily Housing. While it has been a mature asset in the United States for over a decade, it is relatively new to the UK and Ireland.

This would lead to the most prolific phases of housing estate building the country has ever seen. The legacy of this historic period has been tackled for the last twenty-five years as these estates began to suffer from misguided allocation policies, systemic building and fabric failure and financial austerity.

The Hunter
Leonard Cord was a rough, tough cowboy turned bounty hunter, but he cleaned up real well. Dress pants and jacket and polished boots and he was comfortable anywhere. Cord hunted people or things for money. He hunted outlaws, runaways, missing kids, or missing valuables. He preferred San Francisco when he was not chasing people for money. Currently his cash was getting short, and he was going to have to do some hunting Wanted posters were his normal job notices. Posters for $500 to $1,000 for an individual in California, Nevada, or Arizona were best. Sometimes adds in local papers also gave him job opportunities. Wells Fargo was also a job source, and a quick visit to the local Wells Fargo office gave him a job offer. They offered him $1,000 to pick up a consignment in Sacramento and transfer it to San Francisco. It sounded like a super payday. He did not know that the consignment was a twenty-year-old hell cat woman who tried to knife him and would make his life hell across four western states. His life would be changed forever.
