CBRE UK Single Family Housing Partners is the result of significant engagement with our investment partners. It combines our institutional investment and asset management expertise with Moda Living\u2019s established development and operational platform to deliver high-quality, professionally managed homes at scale. We believe our approach will deliver a truly differentiated approach for both our investors and residents.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Johnny Caddick, CEO of Moda Living\u00a0said: \u201cThis partnership marks an important step in scaling the delivery of institutional-grade single family housing across the UK. \u201cBy investing alongside CBRE IM and aligning with patient, core capital, we can take a long-term approach to delivery, bringing forward a significant pipeline of well-designed homes at scale into an underserved market with proven fundamentals. This will allow us to maintain a focus on quality and consistency, creating places designed for long-term living while supporting stable, sustainable performance for investors.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new residential platform has been launched to fund and deliver single-family rental homes across the
