Build To Rent

Build-To-Rent Community Design

C3 Studio specializes in Build-to-Rent community design, creating functional and efficient home designs that maximize rental income while maintaining long-term value. Our expertise in rental community design ensures that each home meets tenant expectations while providing a strong return for investors and developers. By prioritizing thoughtful design and livability, our communities foster long-term tenancy, reducing turnover rates and cultivating stable, connected neighborhoods.
We have designed and planned numerous Build-to-Rent (BTR) communities, ranging from 12 to 45 acres and 100 to 375 units. These neighborhoods have become highly desirable, often with waiting lists of renters before construction is even completed.
Notable communities are located in South Carolina, Georgia, North Carolina, and Florida.

Land Planning

C3 Studio provides land planning services that transform undeveloped land into well-designed, functional, and marketable communities. Whether you’re developing a Build-to-Rent neighborhood, a custom home community, or a mixed-use development, our approach ensures that every acre is optimized for efficiency, livability, and long-term success.
Our expertise in residential and neighborhood design includes
  • Site Evaluation & Master Planning – Optimizing land use while balancing density, infrastructure, and community appeal.
  • Zoning & Regulatory Guidance – Navigating local codes for a seamless approval process
  • Scalable Solutions – Tailoring designs for projects ranging from small infill developments to large master-planned communities.
  • Environmental & Sustainability Considerations – Integrating green spaces and energy-efficient layouts.
