These numbers come from Roost's own pipeline: Richmond upon Thames listings gathered from estate agents across London between 8 March to 5 October 2026. Snapshot taken 5 October 2026.
It's what agents are marketing, not a census. It skews toward flats and toward the agents whose sites we watch, so it describes the market you'd actually meet while searching, not every home in Richmond upon Thames. Medians throughout, because a handful of prime listings pull an average upward and tell you nothing about your search.
Rents below £500 or above £15,000 a month are set aside as data errors or ultra-prime outliers. Where a figure would rest on too few listings to trust, we leave it blank rather than guess.
