The Challenge
Our clients, a family of four from the Caribbean, were relocating to London and needed a secure, modern three-bedroom apartment with air conditioning. With two children attending local schools, they sought a property close to their schools and with good access to the rest of London. With a budget of £3,500 per week (£15,166 per month), they were looking in an area where demand for high-quality rental properties, especially in Marylebone, significantly exceeds supply.
The Perfect Conclusion
With our in-depth knowledge of the Marylebone rental market and excellent contacts with the right agents, we focused the search on key areas and developments that met our clients' exact criteria. Given the fast-moving rental market, where desirable properties often receive multiple bids, it was essential to be the first in to view suitable options and secure access before other tenants. Thanks to our strong relationship with a letting agent, we were invited to view an apartment that hadn't yet been advertised. This early access enabled our clients to make a swift decision, allowing us to negotiate a discount from the asking price.
The Unfair Advantage
Our reputation as leading rental search and buying agents means we gain priority access. Recognising the property's appeal and prime location, and knowing it hadn't yet been openly advertised, we promptly submitted a strong offer. By working efficiently under tight deadlines, we successfully convinced the landlord to accept our proposal and ensured a smooth move-in process without the property ever being openly marketed. We are delighted to have secured an outstanding apartment in a fantastic location for our client.
