Estate agents in Shoreditch
East London has seen dramatic regeneration over the last few years, and the area around Shoreditch has been recently transformed, from a largely forgotten backwater into a trendy destination packed with bars, cafes and restaurants and now one of the most exciting areas in London for young professionals to live and work. Shoreditch estate agent Benham & Reeves is based at the stunning new 250 City Road development, right in the heart of this vibrant area, close to the City and the tech hub around Old Street roundabout as well as the many small businesses springing up across East London.
Our on-site branch at 250 City Road EC1 offers a full range of property sales, lettings and property management services to investors who have been buying property in this area, taking advantage of the surge in rental demand from professionals wishing to live and work here. Top of renters’ wish list? A high spec home with excellent facilities within an easy commute of their workplace. And 250 City Road certainly meets the brief. Our team of property specialists offer clients unrivalled property expertise, helping investors buy, rent out and manage their property portfolios, from studio flats to luxurious penthouse apartments.
If you would like to find out more about renting, selling or buying property in Shoreditch, call our sales team or view our Shoreditch area guide to find out more about the area.

Where in London do you live? I live in Richmond.
Tell me something about your career After several years working in recruitment in Tokyo, I moved to the UK in 2001 to study for a Masters degree. After graduating, I began my career in the property industry, becoming a lettings negotiator for a Japanese-owned agency. I progressed with the firm, working in central London and eventually managing six branches.
What skills do you bring to your role? I have extensive experience of the corporate lettings market in London, in particular working with Japanese corporate clients. I am also a member of ARLA Propertymark. This expertise is invaluable in my role heading up the Japan desk at Benham and Reeves where we have a dedicated corporate services department.
What do you enjoy doing outside work? I love running in Richmond Park and usually try and do a 12k run at the weekend.

Where in London do you live? I’m currently living in the Willesden area.
What skills do you bring to your role? I used to teach English at a school in Japan and Japanese to foreign students, so I gained good customer-facing experience and sharpened my linguistic skills. With communication and negotiating proficiency, my main role is to provide Japanese tenants and our global landlords with the best mutual housing contract that suits both parties. I have developed good working relationships with many companies, mostly curated through my own network. My instincts help me to meet the needs of our Japanese corporate tenants who I enjoy helping. It is most important to me that I give 100 percent to everyone.
What do you like to do outside work? You will find me in a London pub watching the Premier League matches over a glass of beer and I like to play football when I have time. I also enjoy travelling and have visited 20 countries, mainly in Asia and Europe.

Their Japan desk is quite good. They provided a good and useful instruction session when you move to a new housing.
Yuichiro
Benham & Reeves Japan team was wonderful at helping me to find my flat in London. After having online catch up, they understood my expectations and priorities perfectly and they showed us the right flat just. In addition, induction sessions before moving to a flat was quite useful. I trust it certainly differentiate with others. They were very efficient and professional throughout the process, they were always very polite and friendly. I highly recommend their Japan team. Thank you!!
North River
The professional team and service, as an overseas landlord, I really trust them to take care of my flat. Regular reviews by taking photos is a great way to let me know the flat’s condition. In addition, B&R's ability to select tenants is excellent, and the background dd of tenants saves the landlord trouble. If I had a friend who wanted to rent a house or flat, I would recommend this team to him/her.
Helen P
Our apartment in Fulham Reach has been fully managed by Benhams from day one. We are happy with the service & thumbs up to the Lettings team! Keep up the good work Mori-san from the Japan Desk!
lionel looi
The B&R Team has done an incredible job for our One Park Drive apartment managing the process of securing, managing and renewing our Tenancy. The condition also looks amazing thanks to the portfolio of photos they have also continued to log. Thank you.
Darien Bradshaw
Our property at Sovereign Court has been managed by Benham and Reeves - Hammersmith and Fulham from the time we acquired it. We are indeed very pleased with the service we have received from them. Yoshi, Anna and the team are highly professional and helpful in all our dealings with them.
Siok Woon CHEW
I can’t speak highly enough of my experience with Benham & Reeves, Shoreditch, and in particular their property manager Haruka Mori of the Japan desk. Haruka’s expertise and attention to detail ensures that any issues are resolved immediately and with professionalism. The result has been an excellent rental experience for both tenant and owner. I would highly recommend!
sarah ludlam
We were very happy when Kaiju Matsuda found a new tenant for our property in Kensington. However, we want to commend the dedication, professionalism and efficiency of Hanuka Mori. She has gone beyond the call of duty to oversee many repairs and improvements to our property prior to the tenant arriving. She was outstanding. If this is the level of service provided by the Japan Desk, then we hope all future tenants are Japanese so we can work with these fantastic people.
Stella Ackland
Yoshi Tsuji is great quality service. the team was professional, responsive, and incredibly helpful.
jennifer zhuge
Since 3 years we are working from distance with B&R and everything is so smooth, professional and 0% wasting time, so i don't need to travel to UK and fixed my self. Really saving time and money. Thank you, Yoshi Tsuji for all we have been thought. Really appreciated.
Monika GOTZOVA
Excellent service level! Highly recommended. I have been letting my flat in Ealing Broadway since January 2024. Benham & Reeves is my letting agent. I have just received their first 6-month interim inspection report. The report was well organized, precise and to-the-point. It had 5 to 6 photos of each section of the flat and 3 on the balcony. I can easily confirm that the tenant is keeping the condition of the flat very well. Benham & Reeves' inspection report gave me a feel of assurance. I truly appreciated the high standard of their service. The job well done!
伊藤洋一
