All homes are held on a 999-year lease from September 2023, with a 10-year warranty (2-year Hill warranty plus 8-year NHBC cover) (Hill Residential, 2026). A further ten years of phased delivery (Phases 2-5) is planned across the wider 45-acre masterplan, giving investors a long-term pipeline within a single, established location.

A Rare Institutional-Scale Opportunity in London's Fastest-Growing Growth Corridor:

Dagenham Green sits at the heart of the London Riverside regeneration area, one of the capital's largest strategic growth zones, targeted to deliver 44,000 new homes and 29,000 new jobs by 2041. For investors seeking scale, the opportunity to acquire multiple units in a single transaction offers a compelling combination of discounted entry pricing, strong rental fundamentals, and a diversified portfolio within one asset-managed development.

The Numbers Behind the Opportunity

- Annual rental value growth of 9.5% in Barking and Dagenham over the last five years, outperforming East London, Zone 5 and Greater London.
- Annual sale price growth of 7.4% for new apartments in the borough, again ahead of comparable London markets.
- Forecast price growth of 16.9% and rental growth of 19.2% to 2028, based on the average of jll, Knight Frank and Savills mainstream residential forecasts.
- Estimated gross yields of up to 7.0% on one-bed apartments, 6.4% on two-beds and 5.3% on three-beds.
Population growth of 66% forecast within a 30-minute walk of the development over the next decade, with 88% growth in the 19-30 age bracket driving sustained rental demand

Bulk Purchase Terms:

Investors acquiring multiple units in a single transaction can benefit from a 5-6% discount off headline asking prices, reflecting the efficiencies of consolidated legal, sales and administrative processing for the vendor.

Why Scale Matters Here:

- Portfolio diversification within a single, de-risked location - a spread across unit types (1-bed and 2-bed) and blocks (Empire and Liberty) balances tenant demand profiles and completion dates.
- Below-market entry cost - the discount effectively locks in day-one equity uplift ahead of the forecast 16.9% price growth to 2028.
- Immediate income where units are completed - The Empire units are already complete and can be tenanted immediately, while The Liberty units complete September 2026, allowing phased income generation.
- Strong tenant demand fundamentals - 47% of local renters occupy 1-bed apartments and 47% occupy 2-bed apartments, matching the exact unit mix available for bulk acquisition, with 30% of local renters working in the City, West End or Canary Wharf.
- Connectivity underpinning long-term value - Dagenham Dock station is a 2-minute walk away, offering journeys to Fenchurch Street in 21 minutes and access to over 500,000 jobs within a 30-minute commute.
- Future pipeline exposure - early positioning within Dagenham Green provides a foothold ahead of Phases 2-5, which will deliver the remainder of the 3,500-home scheme over the next decade.
