What makes these awards so special? They’re based entirely on feedback from the people who matter most – our residents. HomeViews collects verified reviews from across the UK to recognise the very best in rental living neighbourhoods, so every win reflects the incredible communities we’ve built together.
The Big One – Best Large Rental Operator
Moda was named Best Large Rental Operator, meaning we’re the UK rental communities No.1 choice of operator! It recognises our commitment to creating neighbourhoods where people love to live. From beautifully designed apartments to thoughtfully curated amenities and a community-first approach, this award celebrates everything that makes a Moda neighbourhood feel like home.
