Description
At Birchgrove Honor and her team believe that renting instead of owning a home is the most liberating form of tenure and allows their residents to retain their independence without the burdens of homeownership. Birchgrove, backed by Bridges Fund Management they operate a portfolio of assisted living developments with contemporary apartments for rent in brand-new, purpose-built facilities within and around the M25. Honor has had a previous career in the television, broadcasting, production, and media world, before moving into the real estate space as a second career. I sat down with Honor to discuss a broad range of subjects which covered some of the following topics:   * Building a global media business and selling to private equity * Transitioning to real estate as a second career * Assisted living occupier avatar * Desire for more competition in the assisted living space * Building a team & traits she looks for * Getting shit done * Is a Labour Government good for Birchgrove? * Intergenerational living * Targeting a 2x and 20% return   Oh and one last question - who are the People, what Property, and in which Place Honor would invest should she have £500m of capital at her disposal.
