ARL Committees

ARL Forums are regular meetings enabling like-minded groups of BTR industry practitioners to share knowledge and insights, to learn from each other and from experts and sector leaders.

The ARL Committees:

ARL/TPI Build to Rent Qualifications and Training Committee

Co Living Committee

Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Committee

Investor & Lender Committee

Operations Committee

Policy and Research Committee

Single Family Housing Committee

Suppliers Committee

The ARL Committees have been created to provide a mechanism for groups of members from particular sectors of the BTR market to share knowledge, insights and learn from each other. Originally established at the start of the Covid pandemic in 2020, they rapidly became vital opportunities to share challenges and get up to date information about what was happening directly from government, industry leaders and peers.

ÌýParticipation in a Committee is for ARL members only (and invited guests where appropriate).

The ARL now offers the following Committees:
