Above average early autumn enquiries have brought a much-needed boost to the Hampstead lettings market which has seen rents flatten in the last 12 months reports local agent Benham and Reeves Estate Agents. <\/p>\n

\u201cAfter a fairly busy summer we started September with a shortage of properties and high demand but thankfully, along came a flurry of instructions through our international<\/a> offices and we\u2019ve been doing brisk business across the spectrum\u201d reports Mark Winship, Manager of the flagship branch<\/a> in Heath Street.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve just let a handful of 2 bedroom<\/a> flats with rents ranging from \u00a3520 per week up to \u00a3690 per week. Properties that are pristine with fully modernised interiors and contemporary furnishings<\/a> are letting quickest and outside space or parking still commands a premium as is reflected in the rental differences\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve also seen a 27% increase in tenants taking longer (two year) leases<\/a> – a good sign of job stability and confidence in the economy. With corporate budget cuts quite severely in 2016\/2017, this had a huge impact on tenants\u2019 finances and demand for larger Hampstead homes<\/a> to rent tailed off quite significantly\u201d adds Winship \u201cbut now rents have stabilised and a new swathe of tenants – from techpreneurs to wealthy city bankers – are discovering the Heath-side charm of Hampstead\u201d. He adds a caution though \u201clandlords hoping to secure a good tenant must be flexible about rent and not think we are totally out of the woods. It is not the time for rent increases just yet\u201d.<\/p>\n
