Greystar Sets a New Standard for Build-to-Rent Communities with Shared Electric Mobility
Through their new HAIKU brand, Greystar has raised the bar for build-to-rent (BTR) in Australia, with a strong focus on resident experience, sustainability, and long-term community outcomes. Over the past 12 months, they have partnered with us at Ollo to introduce shared electric vehicle solutions across multiple BTR communities, delivering a mobility amenity that goes beyond standard expectations.
As a pioneer in the Australian BTR sector, Greystar continues to demonstrate that innovative design and lifestyle-focused amenities are key to building thriving communities. Their commitment to enhancing resident satisfaction, reducing environmental impact, and creating connected neighbourhoods is evident in the success of these initiatives.
With 3 HAIKU properties open for rent and a growing pipeline of future projects, Greystar are on a mission to transform the lives of thousands of Australians.
Delivering tangible benefits for residents and communities through mobility
HAIKU residents now enjoy on-demand access to the Ollo Electric Vehicles, a practical and sustainable way to get around. The impact of Greystar’s approach is clear:
- High resident engagement – residents actively use and appreciate the convenience of shared EVs.
- Enhanced resident experience – mobility services support satisfaction and long-term retention.
- Reduced private-car dependence – encouraging more sustainable transport options.
- Stronger sustainability and ESG performance – aligning with environmental and social governance goals.
- Optimised use of parking and space – shared vehicles allow smarter, more efficient community design.
- A mobility amenity exceeding planning requirements – offering a lifestyle benefit beyond standard DA obligations.
By integrating smart mobility solutions into their BTR developments, Greystar is not just providing a place to live - they are shaping the future of how Australians will live, work, and move in urban communities.
A commitment to innovation and community
Greystar’s leadership in BTR demonstrates that forward-thinking developers can deliver both sustainable outcomes and superior resident experiences. Ollo is proud to support this vision, providing the technology and platform that makes shared EV access simple and seamless for residents.
As Greystar continues to expand its portfolio across Australia, these initiatives showcase how a focus on innovation, community, and sustainability can transform residential living. Stay tuned to our blog for more updates on these exciting projects.
