Why accurate pricing isn’t about a Rightmove report — and never has been

Valuing Central London Properties: The GLP Approach

Valuing a property in Central London is part art, part data science, and part instinct built on years of doing the job, street by street. At Greater London Properties (GLP), we know that no two homes and no two sales are ever the same. And that's especially true in a market as fragile and nuanced as Central London.


It's Not About a Portal Report
Anyone can pull a Rightmove report, but that alone tells you very little. It won't reflect:

  • Which buildings attract investor interest
  • How floor level, views, or ceiling height affect value
  • Whether a buyer will see potential or problems
  • What's really been happening off-market in your postcode

We take a street-by-street approach, because in Central London, values can shift dramatically just a few doors down.

Big Picture Thinking Meets Local Expertise
Accurate valuations must consider not just local supply and demand, but macro conditions too. At GLP, we monitor:

  • Economic sentiment
  • Interest rate movements
  • Government budgets and tax policy
  • Overseas trends and global legislation that affects international buyers

Why? Because in this part of London, international capital still plays a major role in buyer behaviour and our pricing strategies reflect that.

Data-Driven, Tech-Savvy, Personally Delivered
We back up our instinct and experience with tools that go far beyond standard agency tech. Our dynamic CRM gives us real-time access to serious buyers already looking for properties just like yours, whether they're based in Marylebone or Madrid. Our long-standing investor database includes UK-based landlords, international buyers, and second-home seekers, all primed and ready to move.

Because we're independent, we don't have layers of corporate red tape. We embrace new platforms, pricing tools, and smart technology quickly, keeping our approach sharp and relevant.


The Danger of Overpricing
We can't stress this enough: overpricing is one of the worst things you can do if you want to achieve the best possible result. Great prices come from:

  • Strong buyer footfall
  • Good quality marketing
  • Most importantly, early demand

An inflated price limits views, reduces offers, and risks leaving a property to stagnate. Once that happens, buyers begin to wonder what's wrong with it. At GLP, we set pricing to spark interest, not to flatter. Your first few weeks on the market are your most important.

You're Never Just a Number
We take on only a select number of properties at any one time. Every sale matters to us. There are no departments to hand you off to. From valuation to completion, we manage every step ourselves.

Call us anytime for a chat about the market or to arrange a valuation at a time that works for you. We're always happy to offer honest advice, whether you're ready to sell or just exploring your options.

Warm regards,
Rob Hill
