Build to Rent Warranty

Warranty Protection Designed for Long-Term Rental Developments

Our Build to Rent Warranty is purpose-built for developers and investors delivering private rental schemes (PRS). Whether you’re building to retain or planning to hold apartments as long-term income-generating assets, we offer structural warranty cover that aligns with your investment model.

We understand that flexibility is key — which is why our policies are designed to adapt. If your exit strategy changes down the track and you decide to sell units instead of renting, your cover remains valid and fully transferable, avoiding the need for costly replacement policies.

Why Choose Protek For a Build to Rent Warranty:

How it works

Designed for Build To Rent Success

Unlike traditional warranties that lock you into a rigid model, our Build to Rent policy is built with developers, investors, and funders in mind.

Keep your exit strategy open — whether you hold or sell, the cover evolves with you.

Site audits at key milestones ensure peace of mind before tenants ever move in.

With A-rated insurers and optional rent protection, your returns are safeguarded from day one.

Not Your Standard Structural Warranty

Unlike traditional warranties that are primarily geared toward individual homeowners or build-to-sell schemes, the Protek Build To Rent Warranty has been specifically designed for long-term rental developments.

It supports the needs of private rental scheme (PRS) operators by providing cover that is tailored to sustained occupancy, tenant expectations, and long-term asset management. Crucially, it allows for flexibility if your investment model changes—without needing to cancel and replace your policy.

Whether you continue to rent or later decide to sell individual units, your cover adapts without disrupting your project timeline or adding costly administrative hurdles.

Confidence for Investors and Funders

When you’re developing multi-unit buildings for rental, peace of mind isn’t just about structural integrity—it’s also about confidence for your backers.

Our Build To Rent Warranty is backed by financially strong, A-rated insurers and supports due diligence for institutional investors, banks, and private lenders.

Whether you’re developing for a pension fund, a REIT, or your own long-term portfolio, the warranty helps de-risk your investment with flexible defects periods and optional income protection for tenant revenue streams.

It’s one less barrier to getting funded—and one more tick in your project’s risk management plan.

Who is the Build To Rent Warranty designed for?

This warranty is specifically designed for developers, operators, and investors involved in Private Rental Schemes (PRS) and Build to Rent developments. It provides structural protection tailored to large-scale rental projects, including apartment buildings and mixed-use developments.

What makes this warranty different from a standard structural warranty?

Unlike traditional warranties that are often rigid, Protek’s Build To Rent Warranty is built with flexibility in mind. It can adapt to future changes in your investment model — for example, if you decide to sell units instead of renting them, your cover remains valid without needing to purchase replacement insurance.

What kind of cover does the warranty provide?

The warranty offers comprehensive structural defect protection over 10 or 12 years. Optional cover can include protection for tenant revenue streams. You can also choose flexible defect period durations to align with your project needs.

Is the warranty backed by secure insurers?

Yes. All Build To Rent warranties issued by Protek are backed by insurers with strong financial ratings (‘A’ rated), helping satisfy due diligence requirements from investors, banks, and lenders.

How does the technical audit process work?

Every property registered under this warranty undergoes structured technical audits throughout construction. Protek’s surveyors assess the design, materials, and workmanship to ensure they meet warranty standards, and that the build complies with Building Regulations.

Can I switch to selling some or all units after the build is complete?

Yes. The policy is designed to flex with your business model. If market conditions change and you decide to sell instead of rent, your warranty will still be valid for those homes — no costly replacement cover needed.
