Complete peace of mind for Singapore landlords. We handle maintenance, compliance and tenant relations through our 21 London branches while you stay in Singapore.

Professional London property management from Singapore

Owning a property in London from Singapore is a smart long-term investment; however, managing it remotely is a different matter. Benham & Reeves Singapore can offer assistance with seamless, comprehensive management service tailored for overseas homeowners.

Through our service, you will have a team on the ground in London and someone you can actually speak to locally to handle queries and provide assistance. Since 1999, we have had an established presence here that caters to the growing demand from local investors.

With a dedicated Singapore office, 21 London branches and over 65 years in the London property market, we offer a level of oversight and support that is difficult to replicate.

Why overseas landlords need professional London property management

  • Managing a London property from Singapore throws up real, practical problems and the cost of getting it wrong adds up fast.
  • The time difference alone makes routine communication difficult.
  • An emergency repair that needs an instant decision doesn't wait.
  • Maintenance issues that go unnoticed compound into huge bills.
  • UK landlord compliance has also grown considerably more complex with the Renters' Rights Act 2026, mandatory gas and electrical safety certificates and EPC requirements. Keeping on top of all of it from Singapore, without specialist help, is genuinely difficult.
  • We help streamline Non-Resident Landlord tax administration, rent collection, avoid inflated contractor rates and minimise void periods between tenancies.
  • And if you've bought off-plan, new build handover and snagging is a process that demands someone physically present at your property on the ground.

Each of these is a complex matter. With the right management partner, it can all be handled efficiently.

Why Singapore landlords trust Benham and Reeves

We are not a UK agent with a Singapore phone number. We have a dedicated team based in Singapore, who understand both the London market and the specific needs of our local clients.

What that means in practice:

  • Face-to-face support in Singapore. Meet us here to clear any issues you may have about the kind of attention your London property needs; we will connect with you in your local timezone.
  • 21 company-owned London branches; not a franchise, not a referral network; our own people, our own standards, along with a dedicated property manager for your property.
  • In-house interior design and furnishing teams.
  • Legal and compliance oversight is built into every managed tenancy.
  • Transparent inspections and reporting so you always know what's happening at your property.
  • Specialist experience managing overseas landlord portfolios since 1958.

Our fully managed London property management process

Every managed property goes through the same thorough process from start to finish.

  • Property handover and snagging: we handle viewings on your behalf, log defects and deal with the developer through the liability period.
  • Furnishing and compliance preparation: full furnishing service available, along with all legal certificates arranged before any tenant moves in.
  • Tenant onboarding and legal documentation: referencing, tenancy agreements and deposit registration.
  • Ongoing tenancy management: regular inspections, tenant communication and lease renewals.

Frequently asked questions

A London-only agent works UK hours, speaks to you across a significant time difference and has no physical presence where you are.

Our London team manages repairs within local business hours, with clear escalation procedures and pre-agreed spending thresholds so that urgent but routine issues, such as a broken boiler or a plumbing leak, get resolved promptly.
