Perfect flat to rent in London. But our service doesn’t end there!

A great part of our success rests on the fact that we listen to our clients and what they really need when facing the challenges of moving to London.

The first, of course, is finding a great home, apartment or flat to rent in London that ticks all the boxes and is in the right area. (We think we’re pretty good at that, what with our 100% placement of clients.)

But we’ve also found that for many of our clients, it’s after the move that leaves them feeling most vulnerable and overwhelmed.

Major concerns after Moving Day

Unfamiliar with UK processes
No trusted relationships with service providers
Unresponsive landlords and managing agents
No time to wait for installation providers
Who to call with a property query
How to choose the best services in your area

Our relationship doesn’t end once you move in. We’re here to offer ongoing advice and support as you navigate your new life in London.

Find your dream rental

Don’t worry – We’re Here For You!

Newcomers to London have all sorts of questions, from simple things like UK appliances and electricity, or picking a romantic restaurant for an anniversary dinner, to more important matters like finding the best doctors.

With London Relocation’s Settling-In Service, we can smooth your transition to your new life in London. It doesn’t matter if you were placed two days ago or two months ago – we’re always here to answer your questions, meet the cable guy, change your American plugs to British ones, arrange for a babysitter or help you set up your utilities.

Some of the areas where we can help

Utilities
Utilities can be set up once you have secured your property. We will provide you with a list of suppliers, and then it’s simply a case of setting up accounts, which can be done very easily online. Remember, we are here to help if you need us! All utilities will be “live” when you move in–aside from cable and internet, which you will need to either install or activate. Getting set up and settled is a big part of a successful relocation to London. Again, we can help you do this!
Meeting Contractors
You’re busy settling into your new job and new life, so we’ll meet any contractors on your behalf – cable, Internet, furnishings, lighting or anyone you’re trying to schedule.
Landlords
We can help you deal with landlords/property managers for any required work for the first 6 weeks of your tenancy.
Phone support
Need to pick our brains about where to go, what to do and how to get it done? For anything you need to know about London, you can feel free to call us at any time.
Moving out
We provide a full check-out service for our clients, including key returns, holding deposit payments and negotiation with property managers or landlords.

    Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From the moment I called Sascha with our move from Turkey it was smooth sailing! She understood our needs perfectly and helped us through finding our home in the UK. Mel helped us wonderfully! We felt like London Relocation was on our corner on every step while moving to another country and especially with 3 dogs! Settling in have been a breeze, everything was taken care of. We weren’t able to attend to the hand off but didnt even worry about it as we knew Mel was there. Thank you so much for everything!

    Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve now used London Relocation for the second time, and once again the experience has been just excellent. The team is responsive, professional, and genuinely committed to finding the right property rather than simply closing a deal. Any Londoner will tell you that finding the right place in this city's rental market is a nightmare, but with this agency, it was infinitely simpler, and you get better deals – better locations, better prices, better viewing experience. I would definitely use their service again and you should too!

    Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Corrina and Sascha were amazing in helping us find a place when moving from Seattle to London. They did a top-notch job guiding us through the entire process as Americans navigating the unfamiliar UK property market. Their knowledge of London neighborhoods, patience with our questions, and ability to find options that matched our needs made what could have been a stressful international move much smoother. Highly recommend their services to anyone, especially fellow Americans relocating to London!
