Greykite retains majority ownership alongside Alvesta Investment Management, while BGO SCP has made a co‑investment through its secondaries programme.

Launched in 2024, Uniqhomes has rapidly scaled to 26 sites and more than 1,000 purpose‑built rental homes across Yorkshire, the Midlands, the North and the West of England. Growth has been driven by Greykite’s off‑market sourcing and portfolio aggregation, supported by strong demand fundamentals in the UK housing market. The platform has achieved high occupancy and strong tenant retention, underpinned by a best‑in‑class operating model. BGO SCP partnered on the assembled portfolio, most of which was delivered at entry, attracted by its in‑place rental performance.

Greykite European Real Estate Fund I is the firm’s inaugural discretionary fund and has now deployed capital across nine of its ten thematic strategies. With €3.5 billion  in assets under management, Greykite  continues to build scalable platforms across the living, industrial and digital sectors.

Michael Abel, founder, CEO and CIO of Greykite, said the partnership reflects the firm’s focus on building market‑leading platforms in thematic sectors and its conviction in the opportunity ahead for Uniqhomes. 
Senior partner Dan Valenzano, chairman of Uniqhomes, said the platform has become one of the UK’s largest SFR operators since its launch, with demand for professionally managed single‑family rental homes continuing to outstrip supply.

Cherine Aboulzelof, managing partner and co‑head of BGO Strategic Capital Partners, said Uniqhomes is a scaled, high‑quality SFR platform in a structurally undersupplied market, and that BGO SCP looks forward to supporting the next phase of its growth.
