Build to Rent is now one of the fastest-growing sectors and in response to the government’s increasing interest in mandatory qualifications for property agents; we are offering an intensive Level 4 qualification in Build to Rent and Private Rented Sector management. This is an online self-study course available to all IRPM members.
The course has been developed around IRPM’s ‘4 Elements’ of residential property management: Technical, Health and Safety, Customer and Consumer and Ethics and Behaviours. These 4 Elements are the foundations for any residential property management professional. Learners who successfully complete the course and pass the final exam will be entitled to use the MIRPM designations.

We recommend all new entrants take the Level 2 Foundation in Build to Rent before attempting our level 4 Build to Rent qualification. There is no minimum experience required to sit the Level 4 Build to Rent qualification. For those who already have the Member level qualification in leasehold management, you will need to do this course to qualify as a Build to Rent property manager. Everyone’s membership certificate will say whether they are qualified in ‘leasehold’ or ‘build to rent’.
Learners can join the course at any time. Learning material consists of nine modules and learners are required to pass an online test at the end of each module. The course is completed with a final written assessment, lasting two and a half hours, that takes place every six months (May and November).
Course duration is flexible to fit the needs of individual learners. Once enrolled, learners will have access to all learning material for 24 months. However, they can choose to complete the course earlier. The recommended minimum learning time is 6 months which equates to approximately an hour a day of learning (total qualification time is 173 hours).
