What you get in Coalville
Forward funding
The partner acquires the site and funds construction in stages, with Land to Homes delivering the scheme under a development agreement.
Houses or apartments
Single-family rental houses on suburban sites or apartments in towns, depending on the site, the planning context and the partner's requirements.
Designed for renting
Layouts, storage, specifications and amenities are chosen for long-term letting and management, rather than adapted from homes designed for sale.
Forward purchase
The partner commits to buy the completed homes, while construction is financed separately until the scheme reaches practical completion.
The English system, as it applies in Coalville
Affordable homes in Coalville are usually funded through a mix of Section 106 contributions from market schemes and grant from Homes England's Social and Affordable Homes Programme 2026 to 2036, or from the Greater London Authority in London. Registered providers, regulated by the Regulator of Social Housing, own and manage most of them. Land to Homes can bring forward land and build homes for councils and housing associations, including homes for Social Rent.
In England, the National Planning Policy Framework recognises build to rent as a distinct housing type, with affordable private rent as the usual affordable tenure. New private lets are assured periodic tenancies under the Renters' Rights Act 2025. Appraisals must allow for Stamp Duty Land Tax, Section 106 obligations and, where charged, the Community Infrastructure Levy.

Your questions answered for Coalville
Can registered providers take on build to rent homes?
Yes. Registered providers can acquire rental homes through forward purchase or package deals, including homes for social rent, affordable rent, mid-market rent or market rent, depending on the nation and their own objectives. We discuss schemes with providers and plan them around the provider's standards and funding conditions.
What is affordable private rent?
Affordable private rent is the usual form of affordable housing in build to rent schemes in England. Homes are let at a discount to local market rent, managed by the build to rent landlord rather than a housing association, and secured through a planning obligation. Eligibility and the level of discount are set by the council's policy.
Is this an investment opportunity?
No. Nothing on this site is an offer or invitation to invest, and we do not take money from members of the public. Build to rent partnerships are agreed privately with institutions, registered providers and other professional parties, each relying on its own advisers and due diligence. We do not publish projected profits or performance figures.
Do build to rent schemes have to include affordable housing?
Often, yes, depending on the nation and the council's policy. In England, national policy expects build to rent schemes to provide affordable housing, usually as affordable private rent. Elsewhere, requirements are set by the council's development plan. The detail is agreed at planning stage and recorded in a planning agreement.
Can we discuss a partnership in Coalville?
We are happy to talk about specific opportunities in Coalville and elsewhere in Leicestershire, including Market Harborough, Wigston and Hinckley. Conversations are private and every arrangement is documented by each party’s own advisers. Nothing here is an invitation to invest.
