In commercial real estate, Build-for-Rent (BFR) refers more generally to an investment approach where a developer undertakes the construction of a project with the explicit intention of leasing it out to one or more tenants.

Note that this term generally is not confined solely to residential developments, such as the single-family or duplex communities typical of the Build-to-Rent (BTR) model but extends to a variety of commercial properties including office, retail, industrial, etc.
