FAQs

What is built to rent?

Built to rent is a new twist on renting that gives renters more security and long-term lease options. Specifically built for renters rather than owners, our renter-first places offer the social and styling benefits of ownership, without the hassle or the home loan.

Who am I renting from?

Us! We own all our communities, so you pay your rent direct to Urban Places. And because we manage our places too, you won’t have to haggle with estate agents or landlords – you just ring your concierge.

Who’s it for?

Everyone who wants a perfect home, but doesn’t want to own one – at least right now. Selected apartments are approved for the National Disability Insurance Scheme too, and we also offer carer units. So when we say we’re for everyone, we mean it.

How is Urban Places different?

For us, it’s always customer first, which isn’t always the case with landlords. We care about our renters – and about building the community they want – which is why we plan events, offer services and create shareable spaces that put our places a cut above.
