Michael Swiszczowski to speak at Bisnow “Manchester State of the Market” conference on 13 October

Residential Director Michael Swiszczowski will be participating in a panel discussion about Manchester’s Build-to-Rent market at the Bisnow “Manchester State of the Market” conference, which takes place at the Dantzic building in Manchester’s NOMA neighbourhood on 13 October,

The event will focus on Manchester’s office, student housing and Build-to-Rent markets, with local and national industry experts talking about a range of current topics in those sectors.

Michael will be chairing a panel discussion on the topic of “Providing value to prove your value: Trends shaping the city’s Build-to-Rent scene” alongside key figures from Far East Consortium (FEC), Glenbrook, Packaged Living, Urbanbubble and Vilicom. Talking points he will raise include the key challenges currently affecting the Manchester Build-to-Rent market, innovative strategies for sustainability and wellbeing, the growing focus on co-working as a core amenity and the potential of the Suburban Build-to-Rent format in the city.

Michael has researched and been published on key issues for the Build-to-Rent sector, including the excellent template that Build-to-Rent offers for post-Covid residential design and the ways in which Build-to-Rent developments must be future-proofed for future consumer behaviour, as well as the increasing importance of a co-working offer as a core amenity for post-pandemic Build-to-Rent developments.

With experience working on award-winning residential projects, Michael is helping to lead the expansion of our Build-to-Rent residential portfolio across the United Kingdom, including high-profile developments at Flax Place in Leeds and Kampus and Anchorage Gateway in Manchester. He speaks regularly at Build-to-Rent industry events, explaining why Chapman Taylor believes that the format is an important element in tackling the UK’s housing crisis as well as helping to provide the basis for a strong sense of community in towns and cities.
