🌒 **The London Renter’s Guide**
**No eclipse glasses? Don’t miss out!**

This evening, London gets a pretty impressive view of the solar eclipse, with around 92% of the Sun expected to be covered at its peak.

⏰ **London timings**
Starts: approx. 6.17pm
Maximum eclipse: approx. 7.13pm
Ends: approx. 8.06pm

But what if you’ve left it too late to get eclipse glasses? 👀

🥄 **Raid the kitchen**
Stand with your back to the Sun and hold up a colander. The holes act as tiny pinhole projectors, casting multiple images of the eclipse onto the ground.

📄 **Make a pinhole viewer**
Make a small hole in a piece of card and project the Sun’s image onto another piece of card or a light surface.

🌳 **Find a leafy tree**
Gaps between the leaves can act as natural pinhole projectors. Look at the ground underneath, and you may see lots of tiny crescent Suns.

📱 **Watch online**
If the London weather has other ideas, look out for an official eclipse livestream.

⚠️ **Most importantly**
Never look directly at the Sun without proper solar viewing glasses. Ordinary sunglasses, cameras and binoculars are NOT safe alternatives.

No glasses? No problem.
Apparently, you just need a colander. 😂🌒

🧳 **Tenant Tip Tuesday**

Heading away for a few days?
Before you lock the door, take five minutes to:

• empty your kitchen bin
• throw away any fruit or vegetables left in cupboards or fruit bowls 🍌
• don't leave a finished dishwasher full of clean dishes while you're away, empty it first
• wash up any remaining dishes
• clear out food that won't last

It's a simple way to help avoid unpleasant smells, fruit flies and coming home to a kitchen that needs sorting before you've even unpacked!

🏡 Monday Question

With temperatures climbing again this week, what makes the biggest difference to apartment living in the summer?

🌿 All the windows open and blinds closed

❄️ Air conditioning is a must

🪟 A good fan in each room

The little details can make all the difference when the weather heats up.

London renting, done better.

🌿 Friday Fact

Heading away for the weekend or off on your summer holiday?

The recent warm weather means houseplants can dry out much faster than usual.

If you're going to be away for a few days, consider:
💧 Using a self-watering globe or watering spike
🛁 Place pots with drainage holes in a shallow bath or tray with a few inches of water, so they can absorb what they need
👋 Asking a friend or neighbour to pop in
🌤️ Moving plants out of direct sunlight before you leave

A little planning now means you'll come home to healthy plants instead of crispy leaves!
Have a fantastic weekend! ☀️

📘 Know Your Tenancy
🏡 Before you book a viewing...

The apartment might look perfect online, but it's worth looking beyond the photos.
Before you view:

📍 Check the area on Google Maps. Is it above a busy restaurant, next to a late-night venue or on a noisy main road?
🛜 Find out what's included. Is it furnished? Is there fast broadband? Are white goods provided?
💷 Remember to budget for more than just the rent. Council Tax, utilities and internet can make a big difference to your monthly costs.
🚶 If you can, visit the area at different times of the day. A quiet street at 11am can feel very different on a Friday evening.

The right apartment is about more than what's inside the front door.

🏡 The London Renter’s Guide

Moving in…
and suddenly realising you own nothing useful

Here are a few things actually worth buying early 👇

🛏️ A proper mattress topper
Because most rental mattresses… aren’t great

💡 Warm lighting
Lamps > overhead lighting
Instantly makes it feel like home

🧺 Laundry basket (that isn’t a bag)
Small upgrade, big difference

🧽 Cleaning basics
So you can reset the place when needed
and keep it feeling yours

🌿 Something green
Even ONE PLANT makes a space feel less temporary

Because renting isn’t always about big changes
Sometimes it’s just small things that make it feel better

🔐 **Tenant Tip Tuesday**
Warm evenings often mean windows stay open for longer.

A few simple habits can help keep your home both cool and secure:

• close and lock windows before going out
• don't leave valuables on display near open windows
• use window restrictors where fitted
• remember to lock balcony doors before heading to bed

Enjoy the fresh air, but don't forget your home's security too.

🏡 Monday Question
Every renter has one feature that's worth paying a little extra for.

For some, it's having outdoor space to unwind after a busy day.

Others value the convenience of a concierge service or knowing they have fast, reliable internet for work, study and streaming.

Choosing the right home is about finding the features that make everyday life that little bit easier.

🗑️ **Friday Fact**

Leaving rubbish bags on balconies, outside your front door or in communal areas can quickly attract unwanted visitors.

During the warmer months, food waste is especially appealing to pests and can also cause unpleasant smells for your neighbours.

Using the correct bins and disposing of rubbish regularly helps keep your home, your building and your community clean.

Small habits make a big difference.

Have a great weekend! ☀️

📘 Know Your Tenancy

📦 Before you move out...
A little preparation before you hand back the keys can help make the end of your tenancy much smoother.

Before you leave:

🧹 Clean the property thoroughly.
📸 Take photos of every room once you've finished.
📋 Check the inventory and return furniture and other items to their original places.
🔑 Return every set of keys you've been given.

Leaving the property in good order can help avoid delays at check-out and make the deposit return process much simpler.
