Who should rent short term flats and apartments in London?

Being such a multi-cultured and multifaceted city, London is home to many types of people, all of whom are there for different reasons. Being able to spend an extended period of time here is a dream come true for many people. Short lets would be a great option for long term travellers and digital nomads who want to truly immerse themselves in the culture and way of life of the British capital. Renting for a few months is a great alternative to a hotel or Airbnb, allowing you to have a home away from home when visiting the city. Another group of people who would certainly benefit from a short-term apartment in London is those who are here on business. As one of the biggest world trade centres, the City of London attracts a huge amount of business and company headquarters, some of whom will only need to be in the city for a few weeks or months at a time. London is also full to the brim with students studying at its many institutions. Trying to find student accommodation can be a bit of a struggle, so the addition of short-term apartments is a God-send to many London university students. The advantage of renting a short-term apartment is the fact it can be used during term time and then given up when your university year is over or whenever you see fit.

Average rent for short term lets in London

Rent prices for short-term lets in London can vary hugely depending on the area of the city, the boroughs, and even the postcode. This variation in price can change from year to year and is increasing as more areas of the city go through a period of gentrification. Often, the cost of rent will not only change depending on the area of the city but also on the size of the property and any amenities that come with the apartment. There is also a huge distinction between apartments rented in the city center and those rented outside or in Greater London. The average cost of a short-term apartment outside of the city center is between £1200 and £2,500 per month, though this can vary depending on the borough or area of the city. The same short-term apartment inside the city of London is likely to cost between £1,300 and £7,500. Again, this can rise and fall depending on which area of the city center you choose to rent.
