About Grainger

• We are a £1.2bn FTSE250 company, and the
  

UK’s largest listed residential landlord, with


c.9,000 rental homes in its portfolio worth


c.£2.8bn.

• We invest, develop, and operate rental homes
  

across the UK with offices in London,


Newcastle, Birmingham and Manchester.

• We operate in one of the most exciting property
  

sectors in the UK, the fast-growing modern


rental housing market (referred to as the Build


to Rent sector). With over 4.5m households


renting mostly from individual buy-to-let


landlords, the rental market is forecast to grow


by 1.8m, nearly 25% by 2025, and our plans


put us front and centre of this growth market.

• We are changing the way the UK rents by
  

creating high quality homes built specifically for


renting and professionally managing all these


properties ourselves. Renting in the UK has


previously been considered a poor housing


choice and bad value for money. We are


aiming to revolutionise the UK’s housing


market through our professionalism and great


customer service, proving that renting can be


better.

• We have an ambitious growth plan which we
  

are executing swiftly and successfully.


Through our pipeline, valued at £1.8bn we will


deliver over 6,800 new, high-quality rental


homes across the UK over the next few years.

• Grainger is a multiple award-winning business
  

including Property Company of the Year,


Landlord of the Year, Asset Manager of the


Year and PRS Developer of the Year.

• We are also a leader in sustainability and
  

responsibility. Recently ranked 3rd among all


listed European peers in the Global Real


Estate Sustainability Benchmark, Grainger


was the highest performing European


residential organisation on the Health &


Wellbeing module, and our GRIP REIT JV was


the 2017 Sector Leader in sustainability.
