Property Management
Your London home, professionally looked after.
When you live outside the UK, even a well-maintained London property requires someone reliable on the ground.
London Private Property provides a personal property-management service for international owners who want their home properly looked after while they are away.
You deal with us. We coordinate the rest.
Property care
Regular oversight when you are not here.
A vacant or infrequently occupied property can develop problems that are not immediately obvious. Regular inspections help identify issues early and provide reassurance that your property remains in good condition.
Depending on your requirements, inspections can include:
- General condition checks
- Signs of leaks or water damage
- Heating and ventilation
- Electricity and lighting
- Windows and doors
- Appliances
- Security
- Signs of damage or unauthorised access
- General presentation
Following an inspection, we can provide a concise report and photographs where appropriate.
Maintenance & repairs
We deal with the problem.
When something needs attention, you should not have to spend your time finding someone in London.
- Plumbers

Where quotations are required, we can obtain and present them for your approval before work proceeds, unless you have authorised us to proceed within an agreed limit.
Building management
We can deal with the building on your behalf.
For apartment owners, many matters involve the managing agent, freeholder, concierge or building management company.

The objective is simple: you should not have to deal with the day-to-day administration of your London home from overseas.
Property administration
Keeping the practical details under control.
We can help coordinate the practical administration associated with your property.

- Contractor appointments
- Key management
- Mail and parcel arrangements

Where specialist professional advice is required — such as legal, tax, insurance or financial advice — we will coordinate with the appropriate professional adviser rather than attempting to replace them.
Reporting

Good property management should give you confidence without giving you another job. Our reporting is designed to be clear and useful.
Depending on the service, you may receive:
- Inspection reports
- Photographs
- Maintenance updates
