Seven clearances have landed in Hackney's own postcodes — E8 around Hackney Central and E9 at Homerton.
Terraces, estates and warehouse conversions
Hackney is three kinds of building. Victorian terraces, mostly converted into flats; postwar estates with lifts that are often out or too small for a wardrobe; and warehouse conversions where the flat is large, the lift is a goods lift, and the loading bay has rules about when it can be used.
Each of those changes the day completely, and none of it is about how much is in the property. Ring with the floor, the lift and the parking and we can tell you what it takes.
Parking is controlled throughout and enforced. Where a suspension is needed the council wants notice, and it has to be arranged by whoever owns or is selling the property.
What the work is
Heavily end-of-tenancy and landlord work, plus sales. Hackney turns over faster than most boroughs and the clearance usually has to fit a fixed date between a check-out and a check-in.
