The UK is experiencing a shortage of quality rental housing for middleincome earners, while households need places that are affordable, highquality and energyefficient.

In Fiera Real Estate’s latest white paper, created alongside Akerlof, we explore how place-based impact investing can help close this gap when impact is embedded from design through to delivery, enabling investors to drive meaningful change whilst generating strong returns.

Fiera Real Estate and Packaged Living’s Single-Family Housing Strategy intends to commit to a Sustainability Impact label, delivering new-build, sustainable homes through a fully integrated platform. As our sustainable living specialist partner, Packaged Living bring deep expertise in purpose-built rental housing, with 4,500 homes and a £1.5 billion GDV as at 30 September 2025.

Through our place‑based investment approach and close collaboration with builders, we aim to create impact at every development stage and help ease pressure in the UK housing market.
