Luxury property management in Chelsea for owners of townhouses, mansion flats, garden-square homes and portfolio properties across SW3, SW10 and the neighbouring prime postcodes. Chelsea is a market with its own tolerances — period-property fabric, listed-building constraints, garden-square rules, distinctive tenant expectations — and it needs a management approach tuned to those specifics, not a generic London template.
Our Chelsea property management service is delivered by a named senior manager who works the SW3/SW10 market every day, backed by a vetted network of local trades that already know the buildings, the caretakers and the estate managers. Owners get discreet, responsive care of the asset and clean monthly reporting — nothing more, nothing less.

FAQs
What is the average management fee for a Chelsea property?
Fees for prime Chelsea residential management typically range from 10-15% of gross rent for let property, or a fixed monthly retainer of £500-£1,500+ for owner-occupied residences depending on service depth and property size. We quote fixed itemised fees after a short property survey — no percentage surprises.
Do you handle listed-property compliance in Chelsea?
Yes. A significant proportion of Chelsea property is listed or sits within the Chelsea Conservation Area. We handle Kensington & Chelsea listed-building consent applications and liaise with the borough''s planning and conservation officers on the owner''s behalf, using contractors experienced in consented works.
Can you manage a Chelsea flat that''s part of a share-of-freehold or RMC block?
Yes. We work alongside your block''s managing agent, RMC or share-of-freehold structure — handling the individual-flat side while the block agent handles the common parts. We have direct working relationships with most established Chelsea block managing agents.
