It varies so much. For a development like this we target professional couples, professional sharers, and families as well.
Having something brand new to move into, for downsizers as well, can be very attractive. It really is across the board.

Richard: The proximity to transport especially being yards away from the tube is great.
The key requirements for renters will vary depending on who is renting obviously, the main things about Carlton House is the proximity to transport, with the tube abs on your door stop. At the same time the convenience of what’s around in times of shopping, restaurants, parks ,greenery, the security.

Q: What property type do investors want?
Richard: The type of properties investors want is two hold – one and two bedroom apartments. I can never have enough one bed apartments, but also, really good two and three bed apartments. For two beds we need to ensure the finish is to a really high standard.
Q: How long will it take to rent out one of these properties?
Richard: In our experience not very long to rent one of these properties.
The 2 and 3 bedrooms here are of such a high quality as long as we price them right we anticipate them being snapped up within a few days of them coming to the market. We’ve seen we’re getting offers within a couple of days.
Q: Describe Putney in 3 words:
Richard: Active – it is super popular for rowers, cyclists, joggers, people who love yoga
Transport – we have as many transport options as you would hope to see in terms of underground, overground, river taxi services, London bus services.
Calm – it is very easy to take a moment, take the load off and switch off, enjoy the outdoors.
I think Putney really offers the best of both worlds, on one hand we are fortunate to be in an area of greenery – Wandsworth common, very leafy, very green, plenty of outside areas and then on the other side we can be in the city within minutes, trains, tubes, so it really covers all bases.
Q: What do you think the future of Putney is?
Richard: I think the future of Putney is very bright I think we’re seeing a lot of development going on, especially on the high street, so I think we’ll see the area brought back up, and we’ve seen a huge amount of regeneration already in the upper Richmond road area and by the river.
The future of Putney? Greatness.

Richard: The best kept secret in Putney is going to be the Palmhouse, a new rooftop venue run by the same people who are doing the pergola chain but it’s a bespoke venue to Putney.
Q: Why would Carlton House be good for investors?
Richard: As we’ve seen already it is popular with our applicants both in terms of corporate and private clients, we’ve seen they’re very popular in terms of finish, in terms of location, the security aspect as well and concierge so all in all I think it’s a very sound investment.
