Elizabeth Scott

What Elizabeth Scott does

Elizabeth Scott Ltd is an independent, founder-led residential letting and property management company headquartered at 137 London Road, Stoneleigh, Surrey. Founded in 2009 by Julia Dajani during the recession, the company serves landlords and tenants across South West London and East Surrey, offering tenant placement and ongoing rental property management. It operates a centralized-office model with mobile agents covering the operating region, positioning lower overheads against traditional multi-branch high-street agencies. The founder has publicly cited dissatisfaction with incumbent industry practices as the impetus for launching the business.

The company's product portfolio is narrow and single-line: residential lettings — listing distribution, viewing arrangement, tenant registration, landlord registration, and full management — delivered through the company website and three property portals (Zoopla, PrimeLocation, OnTheMarket). The company has no proprietary technology systems; its digital presence runs on 10ninety's estate and letting agent software. The business is GDPR-compliant and holds memberships in TPOS (The Property Ombudsman Scheme) and UKALA. Revenue is earned via transaction-based fees on rental placements and ongoing management commissions across an active listing pool of approximately 97 properties, with average rents ranging from £750 pcm (room rentals) to £3,000 pcm (4-bedroom houses). Marketing investment has shifted away from Rightmove toward social media and video, while overall growth is described by the founder as primarily recommendation- and repeat-business driven with minimal paid advertising.

Direct peers

• Purplebricks: Purplebricks is a UK hybrid estate and letting agent offering fixed-fee services. It is a direct peer because it competes for the same residential landlord and seller base in South West London/Surrey with a lower-cost, digitally-led model.
• Foxtons: Foxtons is a London-focused letting and estate agency with deep coverage across South and West London. It is a direct peer because it competes head-to-head with Elizabeth Scott for the same landlord and tenant pool in overlapping London postcodes, although at significantly larger scale.
• Hunters Property Group: Hunters is a national UK estate and letting agency network with franchise branches. It is a direct peer because its branch network covers London and Surrey and offers competing residential letting and management services to similar landlord clients.
• Belvoir Lettings: Belvoir is a national network of franchised letting and estate agencies with strong regional franchise coverage. It is a direct peer because it offers residential lettings and management services across the same UK geographies, including Surrey, competing for the same landlord clients.
• OpenRent: OpenRent is the UK's largest online letting platform, enabling landlords to list properties and find tenants without a traditional high-street agent. It is a direct peer because it targets the same residential letting market in London/Surrey with a self-serve alternative to full-service agents like Elizabeth Scott.
• Martin & Co: Martin & Co is a UK-wide letting and sales agency franchise with national coverage. It is a direct peer because it provides residential letting, tenant placement, and managed services to UK landlords in markets that overlap with Elizabeth Scott's catchment.

Emerging players

• LettingaProperty.com: LettingaProperty.com is an online letting agent that offers fixed-fee tenant-find and management services UK-wide. It is an emerging player that overlaps with Elizabeth Scott's residential letting proposition but reaches landlords via a self-serve digital model rather than a local branch.

Broad incumbents

• Connells Group: Connells is one of the UK's largest estate and letting agency groups with extensive branch coverage. It is a broad incumbent because it competes in the same London/Surrey letting market but offers a much wider portfolio (sales, lettings, mortgage, surveying) than Elizabeth Scott.
• Savills: Savills is a global real estate services firm with a strong UK residential lettings and management practice across London and the Home Counties. It is a broad incumbent because it offers overlapping letting services in the same Surrey/SW London geographies but as part of a much larger real estate platform.
• Knight Frank: Knight Frank is a premium global real estate consultancy with significant UK residential lettings operations. It is a broad incumbent because it serves higher-end landlords in the same South West London/Surrey geographies with overlapping letting and management offerings.
