Settio Living to disrupt BTR market

A Manchester-based premium residential lettings and management company is shaking up the build-to-rent (BTR) sector with the launch of Settio Living.

Settio, known for its expertise in the private residential sector and with more than £525 million in property under management, is now offering operational services to institutional investors and funds in the BTR market. 

Bosses say the new service will leverage the company’s extensive tenant database and market knowledge to “bring something new to BTR” by boosting lease-up speeds, occupancy rates and resident retention.

Led by Samuel Fitz-Hugh, co-founder of Settio, Settio Living already supports key developments such as Legal & General’s Slate Yard and Vita Group’s Union and Uhaus. 

Samuel said: “The BTR sector has accelerated at high speed over the past five years and, as with any new product or service, there’s a time to look back and identify what could be done better, more efficiently and more profitably. 

“Settio Living can deliver that fresh and innovative approach and produce better results for investors and communities. 

“Since our launch we’ve delivered huge new-build lease-up projects, consistently provided market leading service and amassed wide reaching resident data. 

“Now is the time for our exceptional team to continue in our vision for greatness and step into the world of BTR.’’

The move follows a year of growth for Settio, which has seen it expand its team and increase its property portfolio, as well as launch new initiatives in Manchester, London and Singapore.
