Camden as a canvas


05/11/2021

Author : Mary-anne


Street art is everywhere in London, especially in places like Camden, making the streets of London a gallery, and a walk to the shops a browse, if you keep your eyes peeled. The imagery on the street has come a long way, no longer is it just considered graffiti or an affront to decent social behavior. Street art has become an art genre in its own right. While there might be a few people that disapprove, I've never met one. Most seem to think that it, 'colors your life' if they notice at all. And it's worth keeping an eye open, there are some beautiful works out there to be seen. As a curator once told me, 'If you want to see London, look up'. Not always easy as it's a good idea to watch where you're treading as well.

 

They can be in the most unlikely of places. Stunning good works of art can be seen on walls, doors, railway arches, and in alleyways. It may even be dangerous to leave a space empty. While you're building a block of flats, the hoarding could well be decorated. So much so, that it's almost become normal, if not expected. It's amazing to think about how many talented artists there are out there and how much people are willing to share and beautify their world. From the purely aesthetic to the political and social statement art is everywhere in London. You can wander around by yourself, or join a walking tour, there are several, which will shortcut you, depending on how you feel about two or three hours on your feet, to a few creative, amusing, surprising, and even famous pieces (Yes, we have Banksy in Camden). Often not appreciated, they do get weathered and, sadly, they are sometimes graffitied over or even vandalized themselves. But, I guess, that goes with the territory.

Under Offer: This term applies to a property where the landlord is considering an offer but remains on the market. It implies that further offers may still be considered until the landlord formally accepts or declines the current offer.

Let Agreed: This term indicates that a landlord has provisionally agreed to enter into a rental agreement with a prospective tenant, pending additional checks and referencing. It doesn't require the prospective tenant to have paid a holding deposit.

Let: This term signifies an established binding rental agreement between the landlord and tenant.

For both lettings and sales, the guidance addresses additional terms:

New On The Market: This term is used for a property not advertised since its last sale or rental. It should only be used for a brief period.

New Instruction: It applies to a property assigned to an agent for marketing recently, even if it was previously listed with another agent without being sold or rented.

New and Exclusive: This term refers to a property that is either new on the market or a new instruction, exclusively available through a specific agent or portal.

New Method of Sale/Let: This term is used when a property is being marketed for sale or rent using an alternative approach to the original advertisement, such as transitioning to an auction or sealed bid.

Reduced: This term indicates that a property's price has recently been reduced. The reduction should be genuine and comply with the Chartered Trading Standards Institute's guidelines on pricing practices.
