ABOUT US

• Our heads of management and accounts are a qualified lawyer and chartered accountant respectively;
• We have a low turnover of staff and a team of experienced senior management who have worked with us for many years, ensuring continuity. Their intimate local knowledge is invaluable, enabling them to provide a seamless service from initial enquiry to setting up home and beyond;
• We are also founder members of the Association of Residential Letting Agents who impose a strict code of conduct and accounting. All our staff belong to the Association and participate in their regular professional development programmes, so that you are assured of the highest standards at all levels.

Our offices are located in the best parts of London dealing with a range of residential rental properties from studio flats and city lofts to grand conversions in period homes, to town houses and ambassadorial residences. We also handle many new blocks, some currently in the course of construction, in many cases as sole agents. We work directly for a number of the UK's leading developers renting unsold units not available anywhere else in the market.

Over the past 50 years we have provided rentals in London for people from most top FTSE and Fortune 500 companies. Renowned international corporations trust us, exclusively, to find houses, flats and apartments to rent in London for their executives. We work closely with major relocation agencies, many of whom consult us first, due to our long establishment, extensive register of property to rent in London and the important fact that we are the only independent major firm who specialises in residential lettings.

Unlike most estate agents who give priority to selling, and regard residential lettings as a sideline service, we are dedicated exclusively to lettings in london and managing fine homes.

Advertising
Advertising is imperative and we know precisely where to place adverts whether it be in the local, national or international press, in the glossies or dedicated property publications.

Our in-house marketing department, in liaison with a public relations agency, guarantees maximum exposure through the media on a regular basis. This attracts a fund of new clients / tenants, supplementing our long-standing links with international banks, multinational corporations and other businesses with on-going staff relocation needs. We also publish our highly regarded in-house Investors Review, keeping landlords apprised of market trends. So as to leave no stone unturned, we regularly canvass almost 200,000 central London homes.

Our tailor made, comprehensive Property Management is an integral part of our residential lettings service – this department has grown considerably over the last 50 years to the need for a centralised management centre which we opened in 2007.

Having found a tenant we look after them throughout the tenancy which includes everything from collecting rent and handling all administration to assistance with more complex issues and the provision of a 24 hour emergency helpline.

Our property managers ensure Landlords can hand us their keys knowing they will be kept ahead of changes in legislation, that their rental property will be proactively managed and that problems are dealt with promptly and cost effectively - ensuring continuity of rent and effective maintenance.

Being around when you need us is important so we aim to be available outside of office hours, if necessary, to accommodate viewings for our London lettings.

Overseas landlords can contact our local offices in Hong Kong, Singapore, Delhi and Dubai, thus overcoming time differences and receive instant attention.

We are constantly being consulted to provide rental valuations as we are a respected authority, based on an intimate and unparalleled knowledge of the areas in which we operate. We consistently achieve asking prices, based on our valuations. A number of the UK's leading property developers include us on their panel as their sole recommended London letting agent as they know that investor purchasers can rely on our integrity through our unbiased and independent rental valuations when buying for property in London for investment.

The London property rental market is very competitive. Tenants have a wide choice. If you want to achieve continuity of letting at a maximum rental, your property must be well presented.

We are able to offer a complete refurbishment service in conjunction with our sister company In:Style Direct who hold vast stocks of contemporary furniture and soft furnishings for immediate delivery. This enables your property to become income-producing with a minimum of delay.

With our in-depth knowledge of what will appeal most to tenants, we always give advice on what a property needs to ensure a client's property will achieve the maximum rental and rent quickly.
