Private Rented Sector

Private Rented Sector (PRS) and build to rent dwellings have benefitted from significant growth in recent years. These investment properties offer an attractive alternative to home ownership and typically provide exceptional communal facilities to encourage an alternative style of occupation under professional management.

Ridge has been integral to the planning, design and delivery of a number of successful PRS schemes. Through our knowledge of the value-drivers associated with this type of property, we assist institutional investors, developers and operators to establish robust business cases and appraisals.  We are experienced in designing and managing delivery of these significant assets to ensure, in conjunction with the appropriate valuation advice, that the right property is delivered to maximise returns. Our experienced designers are also familiar with the risks and mitigation measures associated with projects that are constructed as high rise buildings.

When developing new facilities, Ridge offers a comprehensive multidiscipline service to plan, design and deliver projects, including:

• Architecture and design
• Project and Cost Management
• Engineering
• Building Services
• Sustainability
• Town and Country Planning 
• Surveying services (including Party Wall)
• Procurement and contract administration
• Development management
