Why Shoreditch earns more
Shoreditch is London's creative and tech engine — Silicon Roundabout, Brick Lane, Boxpark, and a restaurant and bar scene that draws visitors from across London and internationally every week. It's one of the few London postcodes with genuinely strong demand across all seven days: weekday tech workers and corporate guests, Thursday to Sunday leisure visitors. For landlords, that breadth of demand drives consistent, high occupancy.

COMPLIANCE
What Shoreditch landlords need to know
Regulations in Shoreditch fall under London Borough of Hackney / Tower Hamlets and the standard Greater London short-let framework. We handle the detail. Here's what matters.
Greater London
90
nights per
calendar year
The 90-night rule
Under the Deregulation Act 2015 you can let your entire home short-term for up to 90 nights per calendar year without planning permission. Beyond that, you'd apply to your council for a change of use.
Staymo tracks your nights and keeps you informed.
Leasehold & freeholder rules
Many properties here are leasehold. Check your lease before proceeding — some restrict short-term letting or require freeholder consent. We'll help you understand exactly what to look for during your first call.
Safety requirements
A Gas Safety Certificate (annual), an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR), and working smoke & carbon monoxide alarms. We confirm what's in place during your property assessment.
Tax & income reporting
Income from short-letting must be declared to HMRC via Self Assessment. You may be eligible for the property income allowance or Rent a Room relief — worth discussing with your accountant.
