Really good and efficient service . Thanks to the help of Jasleen Kaurah I have been able to get my deposit back on time and sort everything out really quickly.

Recently moved into my first London rental through London Shared. Very smooth process and was reassured the whole way through. Cons: - very slow to attend to maintenance requests - communication isn’t great to update you - you can’t pick your housemates so can be a little risky

Landlords Beware As a landlord who rented to London Shared I would advise others thinking of doing the same to think very carefully. Whilst the rent was always paid on time and the property managers are nice and professional the business model means that you will be constantly completing repairs for them and replacing washing machines and dishwashers annually. When they recently vacated my property they refused to complete the repairs that their inventory clerk had listed as ‘tenant responsibility’. What were brand new carpets when they moved in were heavily marked where they had heavy furniture without carpet protectors, they didn’t even replace the light bulbs when it was specified in their contract. The walls were all heavily marked with stains which they claimed was wear and tear. As there is no deposit you have no protection on any of this and you are better off renting to individuals or a family. I’m very disappointed with what has happened, it was really unprofessional and I’d like to warn others about renting to them.

Dear Tania, We appreciate all feedback as it gives us an opportunity to improve our service. Our relationship with our landlords and tenants are taken with a lot of care and importance at London Shared. With regards to maintenance we have an inhouse operations team that can assist with small maintenance and repair issues. However when maintenance issues needs to be looked into further by contractors who specialise in specific areas, we must inform and request the landlord to approve these visits prior to the contractor attending. Regarding the end of the tenancy, you are correct, there were some things that were overlooked from our side, such as paint work. However, following up on a conversation with you, we arranged for a contractor to attend and complete these works.I understand it was inconvenient to delay these works, so please accept our apologies for the service provided at the end of the tenancy. We are always striving to be better as a company and your feedback will definitely support us in doing so. If you have any further points you would wish to discuss please do not hesitate to get in touch. Thanks, London Shared

This was by far the worst virtual flat viewing experience I’ve had in London. The agent contacted me over an hour after our agreed time and then sent a series of videos that were literally only a few seconds long—completely inadequate for viewing a property. It feels like the high demand for housing in London has caused their professional standards to drop significantly when it comes to online viewings. Overall, the agent came across as disrespectful and dismissive, which made the whole experience very frustrating.

We’re sorry to hear that your virtual viewing experience didn’t meet expectations. We apologise if it felt rushed—this was never our intention. While virtual tours can be challenging at times, we aim to provide a clear and respectful service. We would be happy to speak with you directly to discuss this further.

Extremely poor experience. Management consistently refuses to take responsibility or fix issues properly. Tenants are left to deal with broken amenities, unfair charges, and poor communication. Compensation is inadequate, and they pass the consequences of their own delays onto tenants. Avoid if you expect basic professionalism or working facilities.

Dear William, Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear that you were dissatisfied with your experience. We recognise the inconvenience caused by the temporary issue with the laundry facilities, and we offered a compensation allowance to help offset the disruption while repairs were arranged. This allowance was applied consistently to all affected residents as a goodwill gesture and not as a full reimbursement for private arrangements. We understand it may not replicate the full convenience of in-unit appliances, but it was intended to acknowledge the situation fairly. Regarding communication and access for repairs, we always aim to resolve maintenance matters as promptly as possible. While we occasionally request residents' assistance to facilitate faster repairs, we fully understand when that is not feasible, and alternative arrangements are always sought. We’re committed to being transparent and respectful in all our interactions, and we regret that your experience has not reflected the standards we aim to uphold. We remain open to discussing any unresolved concerns directly. Please feel free to reach out directly at info@londonshared.co.uk Thank you for your feedback. Kind Regards, London Shared

London Shared has been extremely unresponsive when it comes to maintaining the property, leaving tenants to simply live with ongoing issues. (See Christopher Sparks' review below. Their response to the review is factually incorrect). …

Unprofessional - do not rent with them. They have left us without a working boiler in winter for 3 days now - no heating + hot water. Craig the manager then went on holiday without updating anyone. …

Do not rent with London Shared if you can avoid it. They don’t care to uphold basic principles of the lease agreements they write; they use sneaky tactics to charge their tenants for repair / replacement of aging appliances; they hire poor …

Hello Rudra, Thank you for leaving a review. Your feedback is crucial to us to maintain our service standards. Upon reviewing the issues you raised, here are our findings: Regarding the delay in refunding your deposit, As you can understand there is a procedure for us to follow before we can release your deposit. We are required to receive pictures and videos from you showing the current condition of your bedroom. Additionally, we would expect the return of the key at the end of the tenancy which was not received. Despite our attempts to reach out for this information, we did not receive a response. As a result, we had to arrange alternative means to complete the vacate process. During this process, we found that the room was not left clean and tidy and we had to arrange for a professional cleaning company to clean the room after your tenancy has ended. The lack of communication and failure to follow procedures caused delays. Extra steps were necessary to complete tasks that were your responsibility as the tenant, significantly delaying the refund of your deposit. Your deposit was refunded to you immediately after the above-mentioned tasks could be completed. Please note, we have up to 30 days to release deposits after the end of a tenancy. We do however try to action all deposits within 5-7 days but there can be delays in case there is failure to make contact with the tenants at the end of the tenancy or receive vital information about the condition of the room. Regarding your claim that your emails were not answered, we assure you that all emails were responded to within 24 hours. If there is a specific instance you are referring to, please let us know. We value each tenant and aim to provide the best service. We apologize for any miscommunication. Please feel free to contact us at info@londonshared.co.uk for further discussion should you wish. Best Regards, London Shared Team.

When the history of London property gets written, we'd definitely like to be seen as the early visionaries of co-living, the first to really "get it right". Landlords We’re not an estate agency, but we are lettings experts. The basic model is simple enough: we lease a property from a landlord on a 3 to 5-year agreement, and then we rent out the rooms to working professionals. We do all the hard work so the landlord doesn't have to. Tenants For tenants, it's a new-and-improved "2.0" version of communal London living. For instance, all of our properties have flat-screen TVs and free Wi-Fi, and we send a cleaner every week. For professionals wanting to make their mark in London, it takes away a lot of hassle to not have to sit around the kitchen table figuring out who owes what for the heating.
