Today’s news is rife with reports of imminent hosepipe bans across various UK regions – and it’s not even May yet! But garden designers and landscape gardeners are putting paid to the predictions, with confident reports that water useage (and, what’s more, garden design featuring water useage) will ride the storm.

Managed Rental Homes in Central London are Highly Sought-After With property prices and rental values continuing to rise, Central London estate agents have seen a surge in the volume of landlords actively buying properties in prime London in order to take advantage of attractive rental returns. Fresh research by specialist buy-to-let lender Paragon Mortgages shows that property acquisition activity in the UK remained strong in the first quarter of 2012, during which period landlords increased their portfolio size by 1. 8 properties, with prime central London by far the most popular place to buy property. John Heron, Director of Paragon Mortgages, commented: “It has been a steady and progressive start to 2012. Whilst landlords are still benefitting from attractive market conditions, there is still a long way to go to meet the increasingly high level of tenant demand. More investment across the private rented sector is needed during the coming year to help to meet this demand. ” The

St John’s Wood Property Market Remains Buoyant Whether renting or buying a property in London, St John’s Wood remains one of the most desirable places to live in the capital, reflected by the fact that it is home to some of the most expensive properties in the world. This prosperous part of North West London, in the City of Westminster, only a 15 minute walk from Baker Street and London’s West End, features a high proportion of independent retailers and offers easy access to the open green spaces of Primrose Hill and Regent’s Park. It is also the location of the famous Lord’s Cricket ground and Abbey Road Studios, where The Beatles recorded their Abbey Road album. St John’s Wood estate agents report that property prices in and around St John’s Wood have continued to soar, despite the global economic uncertainty, eurozone woes, and the recent hike in stamp duty at the upper end of the market to seven per cent.

Landscaping Design Trends for 2012 and beyond Less Lawn & More Planting As people all over the world become more environmentally aware, it is likely that contemporary landscaping design will favour less lawn and more planting. It is a simple fact that a well-manicured lawn consumes a great deal of energy, both in terms of the gardener working on it, and in the larger environmental sense! By decreasing the amount of lawn we feature in garden and landscape design, we can not only reduce fumes from gasoline-powered lawn mowers, but we can also reduce water useage from irrigating those lawns, and increase the native butterfly and bee populations too. Less Symmetry & More Natural In planting trends in landscaping, it is likely people will choose to move closer to nature and away from the more regimented, formal and symmetrical landscaping architecture. Once again there are environmental concerns – more natural planting and design simply uses less energy, in build and in upkeep, and nativ

Demand For Rental Property Remains Firm Almost half of the landlords - 44 per cent - surveyed in Paragon’s latest Private Rented Sector Trends survey for the first quarter of 2012 said that tenant demand was continuing to grow. The results of the quarterly survey carried out by the specialist buy-to-let lender also revealed that just seven per cent of landlords thought that during Q1 tenant demand declined and 46 per cent said that levels remained stable. Moving forward, 53 per cent of landlords surveyed believe that demand for rental accommodation will continue to grow and 36% said that it will stabilise. “Levels of tenant demand have for the most part remained steady throughout the first quarter of the year. This shows the continuing importance of the private rented sector as the tenure of choice for many people,” said Nigel Terrington, chief executive of Paragon Group. Demand is generally greatest for property to rent in London, particularly sought after areas like Prime Centra

Properties in St Johns Wood and Primrose Hill growing increasingly popular The expensive prices of homes in central London are leading more buyers to seek alternative addresses to get more for their money. With average prices slightly cheaper, some people have started moving away from prime central London to surrounding regions on the edge of the city centre, reflected in greater demand for property for sale in St Johns Wood and Primrose Hill. Trevor Abrahmsohn of Glentree Estates said: “30 years ago, St John’s Wood was the first leafy suburb outside the Mecca of the West End, with its glittering array of shopping facilities. If you wanted to live in North West London proximity to the West End was crucial and St John’s Wood provided an excellent, yet expensive, place to live. ” Thirty years later and very little has changed as far as demand for homes in St Johns Wood and Primrose Hill is concerned.

Central London property management services are highly sought-after Investment in buy-to-let properties is growing more popular, particularly for people aiming to augment their pensions or beat poor returns on their savings in the bank. Investing in buy-to-let property can prove an excellent way to make money, particularly in the current climate, with demand at an historic high. The latest monthly survey from lettings firm LSL Property Services shows that average rents increased by 3. 5 per cent in February compared to the corresponding month last year, and look set to rise further in the medium term. David Newnes, a director of LSL, commented: “Tenant demand is underpinning rental inflation. ” However, many people fail to appreciate that becoming a landlord or expanding a property portfolio comes with added responsibility. Effective property assistance is essential, but can prove time consuming, especially for part-time or temporary landlords. A lack of professional organisation

London property market expected to defy national downward trend It is booming and blooming in the UK property market if you know where to look. Activity in the property market may have slowed in recent months causing a dip in nationwide home prices, but there is one region of the country that continues to defy the market slump, and that is the capital city of London. The latest property price index released by LSL Property Services and Acadametrics shows that the capital was the only region of England where residential property prices increased in December 2011, thanks to strong demand for property for sale in London. The index reveals that the average price of a home in London appreciated by 0. 6 per cent in December compared to the previous month and by 3 per cent against the corresponding month in 2010. LSL Property Services commercial director David Brown said: “Prices in London have bucked the national trend, not falling in any of the last six months, and growing annually by t

Central London estate agents see strong international demand Despite a general slowdown in the UK property market, central London estate agents are still witnessing a high level of demand for properties in London, particularly in Prime Central London where there is a high level of activity among international homebuyers, pushing property prices higher in the process. The latest figures supplied by Knight Frank show that the average price of Prime Central London residential property rose by 0. 9% in January on the back of greater inquiries for property for sale in London. This latest increase pushed the three-month rate of growth to 2. 7%, the highest rate since July 2011. Annual growth now stands at 11. 9%, with prices rising 42% since their post-Lehman low in March 2009. Capital appreciation has also been driven in part by a hike in activity among property investors looking to take advantage of higher rental returns on the back of greater demand for property to rent in London.

London property management services growing increasingly important Many landlords take property management for granted. But with rental prices at an all-time high and demand for property to rent in London rising, more landlords need to think about offering a more professional management service in order to meet growing expectations from tenants. Very few landlords, particularly those who also have full-time jobs, appreciate just how much work is involved with managing a property, not until they experience problems. Consequently, more landlords are now hiring London property management firms, especially if they have more than one property situated across various locations. Adam Feather, managing director of Hampstead estate agents Robert Anthony, which offers a professional property management service, says that his firm has seen a noticeable rise in the volume of landlords turning to property companies in order to manage their buy-to-let units. Mr Feather said: “Property managemen
