Residential real estate requires humanising through placemaking

Posted by StreetDots on 14th October 2019 -

Real estate is shifting from being a fixed physical product towards a flexible, tenant focused service. Even the residential market is shifting. Homes which are available on flexible terms and provide a positive, and attractive, experienced based living experience, we believe, will be in greatest demand. 

StreetDots are here to help support new housing delivery, even the newest of housing delivery types including brand new concepts like modular, meanwhile use, PRS and BTR. We can even help to breathe life into existing ‘dead’ areas.

StreetDots is the definition of a ‘mobile’ cities. We bring our offerings to the consumer.

We are also here to help renters feel ‘at home’ and proud of where they live. PRS and BTR are growing housing types and we can help those who do not ‘own’ to feel a sense of belonging.

We are both experience and spacial awareness experts- we can identify opportunity on almost any estate.

We see the value in enlivening transportation hubs which people experience daily. These hubs should be the most attractive of all! 

Placemaking services like ours, can make even the poorest of neighbourhoods ‘rich’ in culture.

We are staying abreast of demographic changes and currently create bespoke offerings for students, co-livers, young families, new buyers, and senior living. 

We are a tech platform, but we believe in the physical connectivity of communities. We want people to feel safe and comfortable. We want people to feel proud of where they live. To be able to meet helpful neighbours and make friends. 

We can help to activate even the quickest of developments! We are massive fans of modular homes and we can assist in creating ‘instant communities’. This is good news for the developers looking to cut costs. 

Our business is about people. We are here to re-create that ‘over the garden fence’ chat. We want to improve on it. We want to bring people out into the streets. We want to get people smiling and laughing again. 

The city takes it’s toll on people of all ages. It can be oppressive. It can be lonely. It does not have to be. 

Let’s paint a picture: What does a Friday night in your neighbourhood feel like? This is what we are hoping for: Parents with young children being able to meet other parents in their areas, kids being able to meet other kids, dogs being able to play outside and everyone feeling safe. Imagine – picnic blankets on the ground, people chilling, music playing, delicious food sizzling from the food trucks. This is what weekends should look like! StreetDots can help residential landlords and operators to create this.

Good to see that the real estate giants are once again on the same page:

“The importance of public realm has long been understood by developers. In future, placemaking and the experience of buildings, in order to better connect people to their homes and to each other, will grow in importance on a more macro level. For developers, this may mean working, not only on the detail of their own scheme, but also in conjunction with local planners and councils as increasing attention is paid to how lifestyle can be improved by the urban environment.” Knight Frank
