Adam Hirst | Build-To-Rent the new standard for renters?

On today’s episode we pick the brains of Adam Hirst, General Manager of Build-To-Rent at Mirvac. Adam is currently overseeing Mirvac’s newest development at Sydney Olympic Park, Indigo Pavilion, Australia’s first mass scale build-to-rent project. Adam discusses the overseas success of build-to-rent also known as ‘multifamily’, the viability of this alternative to generic residential development and how this alternative model will benefit renters.

Here’s what we covered:

• What is build-to-rent/Multifamily?
• Is build-to-rent the future for renters?
• Why are build-to-rent leases longer than standard leases?
• What are the building costs associated?
• What are the benefits of build-to-rent?
• Why are superannuation funds investing in build-to-rent?
• Will there be an under supply of housing in 2021 - 2023?
• Why consumers want sustainability but are not willing to pay for it
• How developers are trying to create a community in their developments
• How capitalisation rates impact build-to-rent
• Why to never buy in areas of over supply
