(Sharecast News) - UK residential landlord Grainger said its property joint venture with Transport for London is forward funding and buying a 195-home rental project at Chiswick Reach in West London to be developed in partnership by Barratt Redrow. The £68.4m purchase price for the scheme will be split 51:49 between Grainger and TfL's Places for London property development arm.

It also marks the first time Grainger has partnered with a major UK housebuilder on a build-to-rent project.
