Finally, an honest estate agent who didn’t laugh at my budget and try to coerce me in to spending more money on ugly apartments in Hackney. The two men that work at Peach are so helpful and a complete breath of fresh air, after dealing with local agencies such as Foxtons up in Old Street. It is a small, local estate agent that knows the surrounding areas extremely well. I would thoroughly recommend using them, or at least speaking to them before renting a property in the area, as they gave us a fair bit of useful information.

It might sound anomalous given the straight-laced reputation of most estate agents, but Peach Properties is probably the quirkiest real estate agency in the neighbourhood, being housed in an ex-public toilet at the Shoreditch end of Bethnal Green Road. I rented my first Shoreditch flat through this relatively small but efficient and knowledgeable real estate agency and would definitely use Peach again. The staff have generally either lived in the area or do so at present and are particularly knowledgeable about Shoreditch’s Victorian built Boundary Estate where many local residents rent one and two bed properties. All in all a charming little real estate agency that goes some way to dispelling the myth that all real estate agents are cowboys.
