Letting in East Dulwich
What to check before you pick an agent in East Dulwich.
In a busy rental market, it's easy to pick the first agent who calls back. These four checks show what each one will really cost you.
The fee in pounds, with VAT
Most landlords can't reclaim VAT on residential lets, so compare the VAT-inclusive rate. On a London rent, the gap between 12% and 20.4% is worth about £2,350 a year.
The extras on top
Tenancy paperwork fees, monthly compliance charges and fees for serving the yearly rent increase notice can add hundreds of pounds. Ask for the full fee schedule in writing.
Southwark's licensing rules
East Dulwich is in Southwark, which runs its own property licensing schemes. Check the council's rules for your exact address, and find out whose name is on any licence before you switch agent.
Reviews, and how many there are
A 4.9 rating from 20 reviews isn't the same as a 4.9 from 1,000. Your comparison shows the rating and the number of reviews behind it.
The area
Why renters look at East Dulwich.
Knowing what draws tenants to the area helps you and your agent pitch the listing, and set the rent, to the right people.
Lordship Lane
Lordship Lane and Northcross Road are lined with independent shops, restaurants, cafés and pubs, and they're the first thing many tenants ask about when they view.
Parks on every side
Dulwich Park sits to the south, Peckham Rye Park and Common to the east, and Goose Green in the middle. Green space is a big part of East Dulwich's appeal to families.
Rail to London Bridge
East Dulwich and North Dulwich stations have Southern trains to London Bridge, and the Windrush line is a short bus ride away at Peckham Rye. There's no Tube, so mention the stations and bus routes in your listing.
Victorian terraces and flats
East Dulwich is mostly Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many split into flats. If you own a leasehold flat, check the lease's letting terms before you instruct an agent.
Questions
Letting agents in East Dulwich, explained.
How much do letting agents charge in East Dulwich?
Across London, the agents we checked publish full-management fees of 12% to 20.4% of the rent including VAT. Big-name agents sit at the top of that range and local independents usually charge less. Your comparison shows the published fees of the agents that cover your address.
Do I need a licence to let in East Dulwich?
Possibly. Southwark runs its own licensing schemes, which can cover HMOs and some single-family lets depending on where the property is. Check Southwark Council's scheme for your exact address before you let or switch agent.
Can I change letting agent mid-tenancy?
Yes. Check your contract's notice period, exit fee and any commission on tenants the agent found. If your agent is the named licence holder, speak to the council first, because a licence can't be transferred.
Is the comparison free?
Yes. Enter your address and sign in with your email so we can send you the report. We compare the agents near your property at no cost, and nothing is sent to an agent.
