How much can my Spitalfields property earn on Airbnb?

A well-presented one-bedroom apartment in Spitalfields typically earns £3,300–£5,600 gross per month, depending on specification and street. Period conversions and warehouse flats with original detail sit at the top of the range.

Is short-term letting allowed in Spitalfields?

Yes. Spitalfields follows London's standard 90-night rule for entire-home short-term lettings. Beyond 90 nights per calendar year, planning consent may be required from the London Borough of Tower Hamlets. Many period houses here are listed, so we check the lease and any consents before listing.

How quickly can you get my property live?

Once we have keys, photos and basic safety documentation in place, your property is typically live within 3 days.

What platforms will my property be listed on?

Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo, and additional platforms based on your property type. All bookings flow into one central calendar visible in your owner dashboard in real time.

How does payment work?

We collect guest payments and transfer your monthly income directly to your nominated bank account. Full revenue, occupancy and booking breakdowns are available in your owner dashboard.

Why Spitalfields earns more

Spitalfields has something the City next door does not: Georgian streets, an eight-hundred-year-old market and a concentration of independent restaurants, galleries and fashion retailers. Guests come for that texture, then discover that Liverpool Street is four minutes away. The result is a market where weekend leisure rates are strong and weekday corporate demand still fills the gap.

What makes Spitalfields different

A market with its own audience

Old Spitalfields Market trades most of the week with themed days and seasonal events, so it pulls visitors year-round rather than only in summer. Guests plan weekends around it and book within walking distance, which holds Friday and Saturday rates firm.

COMPLIANCE

What Spitalfields landlords need to know

Regulations in Spitalfields fall under the London Borough of Tower Hamlets and the standard Greater London short-let framework. We handle the detail — here's what matters.

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.
