Belgravia lettings agents: Lettings in London SW1

Centred around Belgrave Square, the area known as Belgravia is home to senior politicians, lawyers, industrialists and there are several embassises here. Properties in Belgravia are predominantly white stucco-fronted buildings which are in high demand. Combine this with Belgravia's close proximity to Knightsbridge and Chelsea, ensures high rental level.

Belgravia

The Grosvenor family inherited 400 acres of land between Buckingham Palace and Sloane Street, from the Thames as far north as Knightsbridge. This ultimately became Belgravia and Pimlico. In medieval times the Belgravia area was known as the Five Fields. In the 18th century it was just a wasteland used for grazing sheep. It was a dangerous place for respectable people to go. One of the bridges over the West Bourne river was called Bloody Bridge because of the number of violent robberies there. It was an area for highwaymen and footpads. It appealed to the aristocracy only as a popular area for duels, sufficiently far from civilization.

The catalyst for turning this area from a wasteland into a thriving residential district was the decision by George IV to build a new palace on the site of Buckingham House in 1819 and to move the court there.

In the 1820s Lord Grosvenor decided to develop the area as an estate to rival his existing estate in Mayfair. He came to an agreement with Thomas Cubitt. Over the next 30 years Belgravia was constructed and was immediately fashionable. Cubitt provided the estate with good quality services such as sewers and gas lighting, and well-constructed streets and pavements. Originally the area had gates and bars across the entrance of the estate to keep out undesirables and heavy traffic.

The estate was named Belgravia after Belgrave, a village on the Grosvenors' family estate in Leicestershire.

London Short Term Lets

Most short lets are catering for holidays or business people working in this country on a short term basis. Business professionals are the ideal tenants for most people. Companies are often willing to pay handsomely for high quality properties in the right locations, as the alternative is hotel accommodation - usually much more expensive for an equivalent standard of accommodation. Some companies can even afford to supply cleaning, laundry, chauffeur and catering services for the tenants they are placing, due to the savings that they make over hotel accommodation

Luxury Short Lettings

With the exception of holiday homes, where certain other factors come into play, high class exclusive homes dominate the short term letting market, with both flats and houses being popular. Not only are they generally high quality properties in upmarket areas, but the most successful are also presented with an attractive décor and furnished to a high standard. However, if your property does not fit this bill, it does not mean you won't be able to find a short term tenant. Excellent location, proximity to useful transport links, pleasant grounds or some other appeal can make your home attractive to certain tenants.

London Landlords

Short term lets can provide a lucrative source of extra income as they can generate anything from 15 to 50 percent more than rental prices under an assured shorthold tenancy. For this reason, some landlords actually prefer to let short term, hoping to find a series of tenants for a property, doing their utmost to minimise empty periods. This strategy can work for some properties in some areas, but it is risky, as your property has a good chance of lying empty between lets.
