London Lettings Market - Rental Prices in South Kensington

The figures below are pasted from the branch return to date for Chard's South Kensington and Chelsea lettings office for September 2008.

The figures make interesting reading. Some properties (generally smaller flats and those suitable for sharers) are being let at asking - or above. Others are generally within a few % points of asking - except one or two larger properties where prices have adjusted downwards from previous expectation.
