Letting in EC2

What to check before you let in EC2.

EC2 is mostly the City of London and includes the listed Barbican Estate. A few things to settle before you choose an agent.

Mostly the City, partly Hackney

Most of EC2 is in the City of London, but small sections to the north, around Shoreditch, are in Hackney and Islington, and a short stretch of Bishopsgate is in Tower Hamlets. Each council runs its own licensing, so check which covers your address.

Letting a Barbican flat

The Barbican Estate has more than 2,000 flats and has been Grade II listed since 2001. Changes to a flat may need listed building consent, so check before a refit, and ask agents whether they've let flats on the estate before.

Liverpool Street's lines

Liverpool Street has the Elizabeth line, the Central, Circle, Hammersmith & City and Metropolitan lines, and the Overground, plus Greater Anglia trains to Stansted Airport.

Questions

Letting agents in EC2, explained.

How much do letting agents charge in EC2?

Across London, the agents we checked publish full-management fees of 12% to 20.4% of the rent including VAT. There's no separate EC2 figure yet, so your report shows the published fees of the agents that cover your street.

Does this page cover Moorgate and the Barbican?

Yes. It covers the whole EC2 district, including Moorgate, Liverpool Street, Finsbury Circus, Guildhall, the Barbican and the Shoreditch end of EC2.

Do I need a licence to let in EC2?

It depends on your council. Most of EC2 is in the City of London, but the northern edge is in Hackney or Islington and a short stretch of Bishopsgate is in Tower Hamlets, so check the rules for your exact address.

Do I need permission to change a Barbican flat before letting it?

Possibly. The estate is Grade II listed, and the City of London says proposed alterations may need listed building consent. Its Barbican listed building management guidelines explain which works do.
