Large Institutions Are Buying Property In Scotland and UK
If that is large institutions strategy, pay attention to why, and why you should have the same strategy.
Blackstone agreed to buy 1,750 UK homes for £580m and has a wider agreement with Vistry for 4,500 homes at £1.4bn.
That is not small landlord behaviour.
That is decades‑long capital allocation behaviour.
Why do big funds like property?
Because property delivers:
- income that can be indexed
- demand that doesn’t disappear
- collateral lenders respect
- inflation resilience built into the system
Retail investors obsess over timing. Institutions obsess over positioning.
And they’re positioning in property.
