Young London is part of Young Group - Private Rented Sector specialists who invest, finance, asset manage and regularly carry out research in the sector.
Run by accountants and surveyors, since its inception Young London has questioned and interrogated all elements of the 'traditional' estate agency model and tries to look at everything afresh. Our underlying philosophy is to focus on relationships with landlords and tenants, rather than individual transactions, through delivering 'amazing' levels of customer service.
Run by accountants and surveyors, all of Young London's rental property is also fully managed, providing landlords and tenants with the security that their property will be exceptionally well maintained. From a central London location, Young London's multiple award-winning team lets and manages property across the capital's travel zones 1 and 2, typically renting from GBP280 per week upwards.
Young London is proud to be actively driving enhanced standards within the private rented sector and providing 'amazing service' is inherent in all we do; it's reflected in our low void periods, the number of tenants and landlords who refer us and our high rate of tenancy renewals.

About Young Group
Young Group specialises in providing Property Portfolio Management services to private investors, identifying the best off-plan opportunities in London on their behalf and managing the entire investment process - from sourcing the property through to financing, furnishing and letting.
Young Group is a wealth manager with a focus on property as an asset class. Young Group owns all the property it sells, and also retains a number of properties for its own portfolio. As the principal in every transaction, Young Group does not realise any profits until completion, giving investors 100% confidence that properties will 'value up' and that financing will be secured.
Young Group has transacted in excess of 1,500 apartments, with a retail value of GBP630m. The majority of our units are bought by clients for their private portfolios. The Group's lettings division, Young Lettings, has successfully let all investors' apartments within a week of completion.
For each property exchange, Young Group donates GBP50 to Children with Leukaemia, the UK's leading charity dedicated exclusively to fighting Britain's biggest childhood cancer through pioneering research, new treatment and support of children with Leukaemia and their families, and to Norwood, the Children and Families First charity which provides support to families facing social difficulties.
