-BGO Strategic Capital Partners has acquired a stake in Uniqhomes, GREYKITE’s single-family rental (SFR) platform in the UK-
-Uniqhomes has a portfolio of over 1,000 purpose-built SFR homes across 26 sites -
GREYKITE European Real Estate Fund I (the “Fund”) has entered into a strategic partnership with BGO Strategic Capital Partners (“BGO SCP”), the Secondaries Investment Management business of BGO. Through the partnership, BGO SCP has made a co-investment to recapitalise Uniqhomes, GREYKITE’s dedicated UK single-family rental (SFR) platform. GREYKITE retains majority ownership, alongside asset manager Alvesta Investment Management.
Since the launch of the platform in 2024, Uniqhomes has acquired 26 SFR sites across the UK, providing more than 1,000 purpose-built rental homes in strategic locations, including Yorkshire, the Midlands, the North, and the West of England. Uniqhomes’ growth has been driven by GREYKITE’s off-market sourcing and the aggregation of its sizeable portfolio, as well as the favourable supply and demand fundamentals being observed in the UK’s housing market. Alongside this expansion, Uniqhomes has achieved a high occupancy rate with strong levels of tenant retention across the portfolio, supported by a best-in-class operating platform. BGO SCP partnered with GREYKITE on the assembled portfolio, most of which was already delivered at entry, attracted by its strong in-place rental performance and high occupancy.
GREYKITE European Real Estate Fund I is GREYKITE’s inaugural discretionary real estate fund and has made strong progress on deployment, with investments now spanning nine of its envisaged ten thematic strategies. With the Fund having $4 billion of assets under management, GREYKITE continues to focus on building scalable, thematic real estate platforms across the Living, Industrial and Digital sectors.
BGO SCP entered into this transaction through its secondaries programme, which provides structured solutions to specialist managers in its target markets globally.
Cherine Aboulzelof, Managing Partner and Co-Head of BGO Strategic Capital Partners, added: “Uniqhomes is a scaled, high-quality UK single-family rental platform with strong in-place rental performance and high occupancy, in a structurally undersupplied market. We are delighted to partner with GREYKITE, who have led the sourcing and aggregation of the portfolio, and we look forward to supporting the next phase of the platform’s growth together.”
Michael Abel, Founder, CEO and CIO of GREYKITE, commented: “We are excited to have partnered with BGO SCP to drive the next phase of Uniqhomes’ progress. This partnership is consistent with our strategic focus on building market-leading platforms in thematic sectors, and is a reflection of our collective conviction in the opportunity ahead as we continue executing Uniqhomes’ growth strategy.”
Dan Valenzano, Senior Partner of GREYKITE and Chairman of Uniqhomes, added: “Since inception in 2024, Uniqhomes has grown into one of the UK’s largest SFR platforms. The combination of robust demand for professionally managed single-family rental accommodation continues to outstrip new supply, and we look forward to further expanding and enhancing the platform with our partners at BGO SCP and Alvesta.”
