About
Founder — Lotus Living & Ivaro Ltd
Rajiv Nehru
Rajiv Nehru is building one of London’s largest privately-owned Build-to-Rent platforms. Lotus Living acquires and operates the assets. Ivaro develops them. The two companies share the same founder, the same office, and the same long-term ownership horizon.
The platform is privately funded and operates across London, Dubai and major European cities. No institutional capital, no planned exit. The platform is targeting 10,000 homes under management with a portfolio value of £3.5bn.
“A well-designed, professionally managed home is not a luxury. It is the standard every resident deserves — and the standard we hold ourselves to on every scheme we build.”

Build
Ivaro Ltd builds exclusively for the Lotus Living portfolio. Each construction decision is made with long-term operation in mind.
Operate
Lotus Living manages every home directly in-house. Occupancy, resident experience and operational quality guide every decision.

for a generation. Because we will.”
