Social Housing REIT has officially rebranded as Living REIT, with the name change taking effect on June 19. The company is scheduled to begin trading under its new name on the London Stock Exchange from June 23 and plans to change its ticker symbol from SOHO to LIVE after July 8. The move marks a corporate identity update for the UK-listed real estate investment trust, which has earlier focused on social and supported housing assets. The company has not announced any changes to its business operations, investment strategy, or portfolio as part of the rebranding.
Social Housing REIT plc has officially changed its name to Living REIT, with the rebranding becoming effective from June 19.
The company said it will begin trading under the Living REIT name on the London Stock Exchange from June 23, marking the next step in the transition to its new corporate identity.
In addition to the name change, the real estate investment trust intends to change its stock market ticker symbol from SOHO to LIVE after July 8. Until then, shares will continue to trade under the existing SOHO ticker.
The rebranding represents a significant corporate update for the company, which is known for investing in social and supported housing properties across the United Kingdom. Over the years, the REIT has built a portfolio focused on providing accommodation for vulnerable individuals through long-term lease arrangements with housing providers and specialist organisations.
While the company has adopted a new name, it has not announced any changes to its core business model, portfolio strategy, or market listing. The transition is primarily aimed at reflecting the broader scope of its residential housing focus and future positioning within the sector.
Living REIT remains part of the UK's listed real estate investment trust market, a segment that has seen growing attention on housing-led investment themes amid increasing demand for specialised and supported accommodation.
