Relocating a family (and the dog) from the US to London for a “let’s-try-this-for-a-year” adventure sounds exciting, until you actually start looking for a rental. Different areas, different markets, different rules, and the pace is fast.
This client used the
Pets Lets E-Service, where we worked as their strategic partner with the paperwork and set up the viewings remotely using our local knowledge and contacts
The Brief
A medium-sized dog, a sensible budget, 4 days in London to make a decision, and a one-year commitment. Flexibility was key.
They wanted dog-friendly, near parks, good commute, and somewhere they’d enjoy living.
How the Pets Lets E-Service Helped
- Narrowing down the areas before arrival
We shortlisted suitable areas, flagged property types, eliminated unsuitable options, and confirmed where the real value was. All before they boarded the plane.
- Curated Viewing Schedule
We created a structured 4-day viewing plan. Each evening we reviewed progress, adjusted the plan, and added new opportunities as they came up.
- Navigating London’s Fast Market
Properties were being snapped up quickly. Their first-choice property came with a 6-month break clause due to the landlord wanting to sell. A problem for a family with a dog.
- The Negotiation Win
We negotiated a 10-month break clause, aligning perfectly with their one-year plan.
- The Outcome
They viewed multiple areas but ultimately chose the one we knew they’d love. They now live in a dog-friendly neighbourhood close to parks and playgrounds.
